Anthropic Forms Employee-Funded Political Action Committee
Anthropic filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission on April 3, 2026 to create an employee-funded political action committee called AnthroPAC, authorizing donations capped at $5,000 per employee. The move follows an escalating dispute with the Trump administration over military use of Anthropic's Claude model and a lawsuit contesting a Pentagon "supply chain risk" designation. The filing underscores how AI developers hope to influence policy going into 2027.
