After gun rights groups, poultry is the next most Republican-leaning industry in the US

Not surprisingly, groups representing gun rights in the US steer a lot of their money toward Republican lawmakers.

So, too, does the poultry industry.

According to OpenSecrets, which tracks political donations, total contributions from the US poultry and egg industry to Republican candidates, parties, and outside money groups reached a record $4 million during the 2022 election cycle.
