Big Tech Looks to Strengthen Frayed Relationship With Democrats Ahead of Midterms

Title: Big Tech Aims to Mend Ties with Democrats Before Midterms The tech industry, represented by an association funded by companies like Apple and Google, is launching an initiative to improve its relationship with the Democratic party before the 2026 midterm elections. This comes as the industry's ties with Democrats have become strained in recent years. The initiative aims to foster better communication and understanding between the tech sector and Democratic lawmakers. It will involve events, research, and other efforts to address key policy issues such as antitrust, privacy, and content moderation. The move reflects the tech industry's desire to maintain influence and shape the policy landscape, particularly as Congress considers new regulations. With the midterms approaching, the industry is seeking to strengthen its connections with the Democratic party and avoid further deterioration of the relationship.
