ALT In 2004, Caruso donated $100,000 to the Progress for America Voter Fund, a super PAC for George W. Bush. The PAC was fined $750,000 for ethics violations three years later. Caruso also maxed out donations to Minority Whip Senator John Thune of South Dakota, who proudly states on his website that he has a “100 percent pro-life voting record.” Congressmember Pete Sessions, who went on to be subpoenaed as part of an investigation into the Trump administration, received $1,125 from Caruso that year.

ALT In 2016, Caruso donated nearly a quarter of a million dollars to Republican Ohio Governor John Kasich’s presidential super PAC. As governor, Kasich passed a 12-week abortion ban which penalized doctors who performed the procedure with up to 18 months in prison. When Kevin McCarthy ran for Congress in 2017, Caruso gave $5,400. McCarthy is one of the primary deniers of the January 6, 2020, insurrection and has been the subject of a probe related to the incident.

ALT Caruso gave $4,600 to Mitch McConnell’s 2007 campaign for US Senate. McConnell has a terrible voting record on reproductive rights, and vowed to push a vote that would put a federal ban on abortions after 20 weeks. That year, Caruso also lent his support to Steve Cooley’s campaign for attorney general of California by donating $12,999. Cooley went on to represent the Center for Medical Progress, an anti-abortion group. Cooley was also behind the release of abortion providers’ names amidst a surge of anti-abortion violence.
