"Butker's political action committee, Upright, has had difficulty gaining traction, reporting only $4,023 in contributions this year and only $1,786.43 remaining in its funds."
"Butker's 20-minute commencement speech at Benedictine College included controversial statements about Pride Month, diversity and inclusion, and traditional gender roles that faced significant backlash."
Harrison Butker's political action committee, Upright, is lacking financial success, bringing in only $4,023 in contributions and maintaining $1,786.43 in funds. The PAC has spent $7,400, yet none of this has supported Republican candidates. Outside of his NFL success, Butker's public persona has been challenged by controversial remarks in a commencement speech, where he expressed views against Pride Month, criticized diversity initiatives, and promoted traditional gender roles, leading to substantial backlash from the community, including a response from the NFL's diversity officer.
