June 7, 2024 Business, Republicans

Milwaukee based department store giant Kohl’s says it will not sponsor any events related to the Republican National Convention in that city this summer, where Donald Trump will be crowned the party’s nominee for president.

“Kohl’s is not a political organization nor donor and is not sponsoring nor engaging in any specific RNC events,” a spokeswoman for the company told CNBC. “We support the business community through the Metropolitan Milwaukee Association of Commerce.”

The announcement comes as both Republicans and Democrats are scrambling to secure corporate support for their party conventions at a time when many big name brands are trying to stay far away from politics.
