Airbnb 联合创始人兼白宫官员乔·杰比亚向一项旨在要求加州选民在投票时出示政府颁发的身份证件的 11 月选票提案运动捐赠了 800 万美元。
Joe Gebbia, a co-founder of Airbnb and White House official, has given $8 million to the campaign for a November ballot measure to require government-issued identification to vote in California.
杰比亚对 39 号提案的捐款标志着该提案背后的主要委员会“加州人选民身份证”(Californians for Voter ID)在筹款方面又取得了一次成功。该委员会由科技企业家兼共和党巨额金主帕尔默·勒基(Palmer Luckey)的母亲朱莉·拉克基(Julie Luckey)担任主席,此前还吸引了来自亿万富翁理查德·乌伊莱因(Richard Uihlein)等全国保守派人物的七位数捐款。
Gebbia’s contribution to Proposition 39 marks another fundraising success for the primary committee behind the measure, Californians for Voter ID. Chaired by Julie Luckey, the mother of tech entrepreneur and Republican megadonor Palmer Luckey, the committee has also pulled in seven-figure donations from national conservative figures like billionaire Richard Uihlein.
这位前民主党人曾表示他在 2024 年投票给特朗普,并认为民主党已经“迷失了方向”。在参与政府效率部(DOGE)项目后,他被任命为美国首任首席设计官。
The substantial donation reflects Gebbia’s move to the right. The former Democrat has said he voted for Trump in 2024 and that Democrats have “lost their way.”After working on the Department of Government Efficiency project, he was named the first U.S. chief design officer.
杰比亚的 800 万美元捐款是他迄今为止对加州政治竞选的最大一笔捐款。
