Apple Inc. — campaign money into Congress
The members Apple's PAC gave to: Newhouse, Schrier, Lofgren, Pelosi and 1 other.
Over the same window, Apple reported $22.1M in federal lobbying — the larger of its two money tracks into Washington.
2 of these 5 members also sit on a committee with jurisdiction over Apple's sector — the money, the trade, and the committee seat all line up.
