"OpenAI's co-founder and longtime president, Greg Brockman, didn't just make a run-of-the-mill donation to the main pro-Trump super PAC - together, he and his wife Anna's September 2025 donations equaled the largest of them all, totaling $25 million to "MAGA Inc.," per a recent filing. The Brockmans' donations made up nearly one-fourth of the six-month fundraising cycle."
"Brockman's multimillion-dollar donation isn't the only example of him spending big, under his own name, on lobbying efforts that have their sights set on dismantling potential AI industry regulation. The pro-AI super PAC "Leading the Future," of which Brockman is a significant backer, has bought ads targeting New York State Assemblymember Alex Bores - a cosponsor of New York's RAISE Act, which was watered down at the last"
OpenAI co-founder and longtime president Greg Brockman and his wife Anna donated $25 million in September 2025 to the pro-Trump super PAC MAGA Inc., comprising nearly one-fourth of the PAC's six-month fundraising cycle, per a filing. The contribution reflects tech executives aligning with the Trump administration as it seeks to aggressively back the AI industry and roll back state-level regulations that companies like OpenAI have opposed. Brockman also backs the pro-AI super PAC Leading the Future, which has bought ads targeting New York Assemblymember Alex Bores, a cosponsor of New York's RAISE Act. OpenAI did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
