JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s political action committee will suspend donations through the 2022 midterm election cycle to Republican members of Congress who voted against certifying President Biden’s Electoral College victory, Reuters reported

JPMorgan was among the corporations that froze political giving in the wake of Jan. 6, when a mob of former President Trump’s supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol in an effort to disrupt the congressional certification of Biden’s election win. 

Reuters reported on Friday that the bank’s PAC is ready to resume contributing to candidates and campaigns, but will continue to bar donations to a “handful” of the 147 Republican members who challenged the election certification. 

The policy will remain in place through the remainder of the 2021-2022 election cycle, Reuters reported, after which JPMorgan will assess whether to reinstate donations to those members.
