The head of the Chick-fil-A Foundation is a donor to both former President Barack Obama's and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's presidential campaigns.

According to records from the Federal Election Commission, Rodney Bullard, the executive director of the Chick-fil-A Foundation, donated $1,000 to Hillary for America in 2016 along with $500 donations to both Obama for America and the Obama Victory Fund in 2008.

Bullard helped the restaurant company start its foundation in 2011, but Chick-fil-A is now being accused of caving to liberals by ending donations from its charitable arm to Christian charities such as the Salvation Army and Fellowship of Christian Athletes.

The company announced the decision earlier this month after pressure from gay rights activists, saying it wanted to clarify its beliefs and focus on education, homelessness, and hunger. Conservatives slammed the organization after the move, with one Republican congressman arguing that it "bowed" to the "harassment lobby" and another sarcastically congratulating "wokescolds who finally bullied Chick-fil-A into stopping donations to the Salvation Army."

The company said it is still open to donating to Christian companies in the future. The move comes after attempts to open restaurants in more liberal markets such as the U.K and Canada, where it faced resistance for its owner's Christian beliefs, including support for traditional marriage.
