White House Creates Loyalty Rating System For 553 U.S. Companies

The White House has created “dynamic scorecards” to measure U.S. companies’ loyalty and support for President Donald Trump’s agenda, a White House official confirmed to Forbes in an email Friday, revealing the grading system as it continues pressuring large firms to align with its economic and social policies.

The White House confirmed to Forbes an Axios report that the West Wing created a scorecard rating 553 companies on how strongly they have supported President Donald Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill,” seemingly allowing the White House to quickly gauge how they will approach future conversations or interactions with the listed companies.

The White House official told Forbes the dynamic scorecards “incorporate the support of present and future administration initiatives.”

In addition to considering companies’ support of Trump’s agenda, the scorecards also take into account companies’ social media posts, press releases, video testimonials, advertisements and attendance at White House events, Axios reported, noting companies' support is ranked as strong, moderate or low.

Axios cited as examples of “good” partners United, Delta, Uber, DoorDash, AT&T, Cisco, Airlines for America and the Steel Manufacturers Association.

An unnamed White House staffer told Axios the scorecards help “us see who really goes out and helps vs. those who just come in and pay lip service,” adding the gradings can change if “companies want to start advocating more now for the tax bill or additional administration priorities.”
