Popular Information reported that Koch Industries gave a total of $17,500 to six lawmakers who voted against Biden's certification, including North Carolina Rep. Richard Hudson and Kansas Rep. Ron Estes.
This came after the Koch political network, which is also controlled by billionaire businessman Charles Koch, told Politico that "lawmakers' actions leading up to and during last week's insurrection will weigh heavy

The chemical-manufacturing company did not respond to Insider's request for comment.
