Meta pulls back $25 million from its midterm political spending push

The company got $22 million returned from its pro-AI super PAC and $3 million from a California advocacy group it had funded Meta has taken back $25 million it had put into its midterm election operation. The money came from two places. The American Technology Excellence Project, a super PAC Meta created to back candidates friendly to artificial intelligence, sent back $22 million. A California advocacy group the company had also funded returned another $3 million. The American Technology Excellence Project, known as ATEP, launched in September 2025. Meta had given the super PAC $45 million. The $22 million refund means nearly half of that funding has now gone back to its source. By the end of 2025, ATEP had used only around $329,000 of its funds.
