Medical society staff show heavy Democratic political donations
An analysis of federal election records reveals that staff members at ten of the United States’ leading medical societies are overwhelmingly donating to Democratic candidates, party committees, and political action committees.
Of the organizations reviewed, including the American Medical Association, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the American College of Physicians, nine showed a strong preference for liberal candidates. Only the Pediatric Endocrine Society recorded no donations.
Data indicates that over 70% of medical society staff who donated during this election cycle supported Democrats or leftist candidates, while less than 2% donated to conservatives. Furthermore, approximately 78% of the total donation volume from these staff members went to Democratic-aligned entities, compared to just 0.24% for Republicans and others on the right.
