Best Buy suspends donations to congressional members who voted against certifying election

Best Buy will no longer make political donations to 147 members of the U.S. Senate and House who voted against certifying the results of the 2020 presidential election.

The Fortune 500 company based in Richfield issued a brief statement Monday afternoon, six days after unsubstantiated charges of election fraud led supporters of defeated President Donald Trump to storm the U.S. Capitol.

Best Buy is among a number of companies across the U.S. - including Marriott, AT&T and American Express - that said in recent days they will suspend making contributions to that group of lawmakers in the wake of last week's events.
