Following the 6 January attack on the US Capitol, the Japanese firm was chastised for its contributions. Last month, it was revealed that Toyota gave more than $50,000 to Republicans who attempted to derail the US President’s victory in key areas. The payments had previously been justified by the company. Toyota stated, “Toyota is committed to supporting and promoting efforts that advance our democracy.” “We are actively listening to our stakeholders and have decided to stop contributing to those Members of Congress who opposed the certification of certain states in the 2020 election,” the statement continued. “In 2021, the vast majority of the contributions went to Democrats and Republicans who supported the certification of the 2020 election,” the business said, adding, “the vast majority of the contributions went to Democrats and Republicans who supported the certification of the 2020 election.” The company does not specify how long the contributions will be suspended.

Microsoft announced in February that its political action committee would halt all payments to the 147 lawmakers who voted against President Biden’s certification until the end of 2022. It also barred contributions to state authorities and organizations calling for the election results to be overturned for the same period.
