Obama's Site Discloses Inaugural Donors

Visit the site, which is home to all things inaugural.
Some of the donors are employed at companies such as: The Jim Henson Co., Oaktree Capital Management, CBS/VIACOM, Dreamworks, Coca Cola and Kraft Foods.
In keeping with President-elect Obama’s commitment to changing the way business is done in Washington, the Presidential Inaugural Committee (PIC) is taking unprecedented steps to insure transparency in the public reporting of donors to a Presidential Inaugural Committee. This chart will allow you to view, sort, and search virtually real-time information on all donors contributing over $200 to the 2009 Presidential Inaugural Committee.

Unlike previous inaugural committees, the 2009 PIC does not accept contributions from corporations, political action committees, labor unions, current federally-registered lobbyists, non-U.S. citizens and registered foreign agents and does not accept individual contributions in excess of $50,000.
