Report: Obama Bundling Pfizer Exec Planning Kirsten Gillibrand 2020 Fundraiser
Pfizer executive Sally Susman is planning a March 31 fundraiser for 2020 Democrat presidential contender Kirsten Gillibrand, according to a report out Friday.
The Pfizer executive vice president plans to host a fundraiser at her New York residence for Gillibrand, CNBC reported Friday, citing people with direct knowledge. Susman has supported the U.S. Senator from New York in previous campaigns. Tickets for the Gillibrand presidential fundraiser were reported to run $1,000 to $2,700.
Susman, a senior executive for the pharmaceutical giant, was a bundler for then President Barack Obama’s 2012 re-election campaign. She bundled $200,000-500,000 in one-quarter of that campaign, according to Open Secrets.
She has signaled to friends she will fully back Gillibrand, according to a source cited in the report. A New York donor emphasized to the outlet the Pfizer executive is a major fundraiser on the Democrat side. Democrat donors run in Susman’s family that includes her father, a former senior adviser and ambassador for Obama and 2004 national finance chairman for John Kerry’s presidential bid.
