Goldman Sachs bans staff donating to Trump campaign, but not Clinton's

Goldman Sachs is preventing its employees from contributing to certain campaigns, including the Trump-Pence ticket.

The set of rules applies to partners of the firm, to prevent “inadvertently violating pay-to-play rules.”

The email, sent out last week, was reported in Politico. It reads: “[E]ffective Thursday, September 1, all partners across the firm are considered ‘Restricted Persons’ as defined by the firm’s Policy on Personal Political Activities in the US.

“As outlined below, Restricted Persons are prohibited from engaging in political activities and/or making campaign contributions to candidates running for state and local offices, as well as sitting state and local officials running for federal office.”
