Dell Technologies Inc.'s PAC funded 5 members of Congress. 3 of them are connected to the company in two more ways.
Dell Technologies Inc. — money, a committee seat, and the stock
First, the money: Dell's PAC spread $36K across 5 members' campaigns.
Then the access: 3 of those funded members — Rosen, Johnson, and Moskowitz — sit on committees including Commerce, Science, and Transportation and Homeland Security, with jurisdiction over technology.
Technology is Dell's industry — and that committee is where its rules, funding, and oversight get written.
And the market: those same 3 members also traded DELL — the stock of the company funding their campaigns.
The 3 members
| Member | PAC $ | Gifts | Committee | Trades |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jacky RosenD-NV | $8k | 2 | Commerce, Science, and Transportation | 2 |
| Julie JohnsonD-TX | $8k | 4 | Homeland Security | 1 |
| Jared MoskowitzD-FL | $2k | 1 | Judiciary | 2 |
The other 2 also took PAC money and disclosed DELL trades — but hold no current seat on a committee overseeing technology.
PAC contributions are legal and disclosed. This surfaces co-occurrence of corporate donations, lobbying, and personal stock trades — not evidence of coordination or quid pro quo.
