Summary
The Republican Party of Texas is moving towards an anti-corporate, anti-elite populist agenda, leading to a decrease in corporate sponsorships for their events and donations to their general fundraising account. The party's shift to the right and controversial policy positions have caused some companies to hold back their support. This change in corporate support is reflective of the party's evolving stance and increasing conservatism.
