- Polls show 64% of Americans disapprove of public spending on the parade, with 88% of Democrats opposing it, while major sponsors include Amazon and Coinbase who support America250’s non-political mission.
- While Meta does not currently sponsor America250, it has a historical relationship and explores future collaboration, reflecting mixed corporate involvement as the parade sparks debate on politicization.
