Activist shareholders are pushing Chevron to stop using corporate money to influence elections as part of a growing effort to raise awareness about money in politics after the oil giant spent an unprecedented $3 million last year to sway Richmond voters. On May 27, Chevron shareholders will decide on a series of proposals at their annual meeting, including three that deal specifically with disclosing charitable contributions, lobbying and funding political campaigns.
