According to CNBC, an analysis found 14 companies listed online as backing both America250, the nonprofit supporting the congressionally created U.S. Semiquincentennial Commission, and Freedom 250, the Trump-backed public-private partnership behind prominent 250th anniversary events in Washington. The companies were Boeing, Deloitte, Exiger, John Deere, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Oracle, Palantir, Phorm Energy, RTX, SAP, Scotts Miracle-Gro, UFC and United Airlines; only John Deere responded to CNBC but did not address specific questions about sponsoring both groups. CNBC reported that Democrats on the House Natural Resources Committee released a report criticizing President Donald Trump and Freedom 250, and that fundraising materials described tiered sponsorship benefits, including VIP access for donations of at least $500,000 and, for $10 million or more, VIP access to all Freedom 250 events, logo rights, a tailored press release, a July 4 speaking role and a private Trump-hosted reception with a photo opportunity, according to The New York Times. CNBC also cited a NOTUS report saying Congress set aside $150 million for the anniversary, America250 had received only $25 million as of early June, and the Trump-aligned effort had received nearly $80 million in 250th-related grants to the National Park Foundation.
