Approximately half of the U.S. state attorneys general participated in a trip to France, funded by a group primarily backed by corporate sponsors, including companies under investigation by these officials. The trip aimed to commemorate the achievements of World War II veterans, notably the D-Day landings, while providing an opportunity for AGs to collaborate and discuss mutual concerns. Critics argue that such trips elevate the influence of lobbyists on public officials, raising ethical questions about corporate funding in state politics.
