There was a leak of pay to play documentation from the Republican Governors Association. Political committees given tax-exempt status usually keep secret, namely their corporate donors and the size of their checks. The most elite group, known as the Statesmen, whose members donated $250,000, included Aetna; Coca-Cola; Exxon Mobil; Koch Companies Public Sector, the lobbying arm of the highly political Koch Industries; Microsoft; Pfizer; UnitedHealth Group; and Walmart. The $100,000 Cabinet level included Aflac, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Comcast, Hewlett-Packard, Novartis, Shell Oil, Verizon Communications and Walgreen. Right or left this information should not be able to be kept secret.
