Sunrise Movement received $250,000 from Soros Super PAC in April

Recent FEC filings show environmental activism group Sunrise Movement’s in-house PAC received a $250,000 donation from Democracy PAC dated 04/29/2020. Democracy PAC is a Super PAC started by and entirely funded by Democratic megadonor George Soros and Fund For Policy Reform, the latter being a 501(c)(4) nonprofit that falls under the Open Society umbrella, on which Soros and two of his sons have seats on the board.

Spending over $31,000,000 of the $40,000,000 raised so far this election cycle, Democracy PAC has made several multi-million dollar donations to left leaning Super PACs; Priorities USA, Senate Majority Project, Pacronym, and American Bridge’s AB PAC to name a few. Sunrise PAC, which is Sunrise Movement’s political action committee, has raised approximately $1,000,000 this cycle. That means the $250,000 received by Democracy PAC accounts for a staggering 25% of their total income so far, making them Sunrise’s largest outside donor (Sunrise Movement injected $400,000 of their own money into their PAC earlier this year).
