“In 2016, the amount of PAC money she received grew to more than $465,000. Again, business PACS made up the majority of her PAC money, this time over 55 percent. One of the largest contributing sectors was the defense industry. While Gabbard has gained a following for her anti-interventionist stances, yet, her 2016 campaign was given $63,500 from the defense sector. In fact, the campaign received donations of $10,000 from the Boeing Corporation PAC and from Lockheed Martin’s PAC, two of the biggest names in the military-industrial complex.Gillibrand’s Off the Sidelines PAC donated another $10,000 in 2016 as well.
In 2017, leading up to her successful reelection campaign, Gabbard announced she would no longer take PAC money. After receiving over $400,000 in PAC money in her previous two reelection cycles, in 2018 her campaign only took in just over $37,000, almost all of which came from labor associations and trade unions.
Gabbard also had her own leadership PAC named Time to Unite Lead and Serve with Integrity. According to an FEC filing in June 2018, the PAC was terminated. However, during its lifespan for the 2014, 2016 and 2018 cycles, the PAC brought in substantial money. In 2013-2014, the leadership PAC saw more than $44,000 in contributions, $17,500 from other PACs. It did even better in 2015-2016, with PAC contributions nearing $31,000, according to FEC data. The majority of funds, $20,000, came from business PACs like Raytheon and New York Life Insurance Company.

At least Tulsi stopped taking corporate and defense contractor money recently.

Lolll you can’t be serious with this piddly nonsense.
“To be sure, lobbyist donations—about $3,200 overall—represent a tiny fraction of the more than $96 million Sanders has raised for his underdog presidential bid. About 70 percent of that sum comes from small-dollar donors who have given Sanders $200 or less.
Sanders’s anti–big money, anti–special interest mantra has resonated with many voters, who have lifted him to victory against Clinton in several primary and caucus contests.
The lobbyist cash the Sanders campaign has collected has come from traditionally left-leaning causes: labor unions, environmentalists, the American Civil Liberties Union.
For instance, John M. Walsh, a lobbyist for the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, contributed $500 to Sanders last year.
Other labor lobbyists giving Sanders money include Ian Hoffmann, a lobbyist for the American Federation of Government Employees, who contributed $235, and Michael Dolan, a lobbyist for the Teamsters, who gave $100.
Each lobbyist declined to comment.
Lobbyist Michael Correia of the National Cannabis Industry Association also donated $500 to Sanders last year. That’s tied for the largest amount among Sanders’s lobbyist contributors to date.
Correia, who also gave $500 to Republican Rand Paul, told the Center for Public Integrity he contributed to both presidential campaigns because it was an “opportunity to reward somebody” for being a leader on cannabis policy.
