  Campaign Contributions To Senators By The DeVos Family

  

  http://www.huffingtonpost.com/en…

  In 1997, after facing years of criticism for her and her family’s campaign contributions, DeVos defended herself in Roll Call.

  “I have decided to stop taking offense at the suggestion that we are buying influence,” she wrote. “Now I simply concede the point. They are right. We do expect something in return. We expect to foster a conservative governing philosophy consisting of limited government and respect for traditional American virtues. We expect a return on our investment.”
