Bloomberg Donates $50 Million to Support Kamala Harris' Campaign

The billionaire's contribution to Future Forward USA Action follows pressure from fellow Democratic donors.

  • Michael Bloomberg's $50 million donation makes him the second-largest individual donor to Kamala Harris' campaign, after George Soros.
  • The funds were given to Future Forward USA Action, a nonprofit affiliated with Harris' main super PAC, allowing donor anonymity.
  • Bloomberg's decision came after encouragement from notable figures like Bill Gates and Reid Hoffman, who also contributed to the PAC.
  • This donation is part of a larger pattern of Bloomberg's late-cycle contributions, despite earlier hesitance to fully back Harris.
  • Harris' campaign has significantly outpaced Donald Trump's in fundraising, with a strong backing from billionaire donors.
