  • In total, according to filings, Anheuser-Busch has paid Miller Strategies $530,000 since 2020.
  • Miller Strategies was founded by Jeff Miller, who also currently serves as the company’s CEO. Miller is reportedly very close with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, Politico reported. According to Politico, Miller began working with McCarthy when Miller was in high school working as an intern for the GOP.
  • Politico quoted a former McCarthy aide who said, “A lot of people like to think that they’re close to Kevin. There are very few people who actually talk to him about stuff or that he reaches out to proactively on stuff … Obviously, Jeff is a very key and central figure of that group.”
