The Marriott hotel chain will be suspending donations to the GOP senators who objected to certifying President-elect Joe Biden’s electoral victory.
"We have taken the destructive events at the Capitol to undermine a legitimate and fair election into consideration and will be pausing political giving from our Political Action Committee to those who voted against certification of the election," Bloomberg reported spokespeople for the hotel told the political publication Popular Information.
Republican Sens. Josh Hawley (Mo.) and Ted Cruz (Texas

We will shun you for your obnoxious interference. And if it comes to violence and revolution, as it might...
We WILL remember you.

Goldman-Sachs, Dow Chemical, and Marriott added to the list. No problem.

They can donate money to whomever they want. Normally they would expect to get some a return of some kind for their investment. It's up to them do do it or not.
I think I'll invest my money somewhere else than a Marriott property. It's up to me or not to do so.
As TxKnitter said, the list keeps getting longer.

We all need to make a bunch of reservations for very expensive rooms at the nicest Marriott's out there, and then cancel those reservations at the last minute. Most of those rooms will than have to be sold at massive discounts to get them rented out at the last minute.
They want to play this game of hurting people financially. Two can play at that game!!!!!

and we will be suspending anything to do with Marriott hotels. Are they stupid enough to lose the business of 74 or so million Americans?

I have split my time between Marriott and Hilton for years. I have over 1,000,000 Marriott points to use at my choosing. I’ll certainly use the points for free rooms on our vacations. But read my lips Marriott, no more paying nights for me ever again..........it’ll be Hilton from this day forward. I hope many others do the same. You made your statement, now I’ll make mine.

I've never pictured myself as an RV vacationer but I'm beginning to see the appeal. No hotel stays = never worrying about the cleanliness of the room or that I was supporting a corporation that hates me.

When I stay in a hotel or shop, I should not have to worry about their political beliefs.
Dana said today that Giant grocery stores will be labeling food coming from black owned companies. Really ?

Hey Marriott Rewards members, just call your local Marriott property and call the Marriott Hotels call center. Ask to speak to the supervisor. Then, ask her/him why Marriott hates us who believe that the election was stolen. What did Marriott tell its personnel to say in response about the question?
