Reckoning with whiteness: Kansas Chamber of Commerce throws a hissy fit over US Chamber endorsement of Native American incumbent

There are 11 more members, but Retiring Guy ran out of room and patience.  They're all white, 10 men and 1 woman.

The U.S. Chamber’s endorsement of Davids and other Democrats represented a strategic shift intended to curry favor with Democrats in anticipation that they would maintain their House majority. It also came after years of tension with then-President Donald Trump’s administration on trade policy, which put a strain on the decades-long alliance between Republicans and the business community.
