AL Political Reporter: “Two weeks ago, on June 30, a nonprofit organization named First Principles Action Inc. plopped down the largest ever political contribution in an Alabama statewide race, giving $1 million to Katherine Robertson, who is running to be the state’s next attorney general.
First Principles Action Inc. was founded sometime after December 2024, because that’s when the entity’s larger, umbrella organization, First Principles, was initially founded. Its address is an office building in Nashville, which also houses a few law firms, a plumbing company, a moving company and Blue Cross/Blue Shield of Tennessee.
While its founder is Peter Bisbee, who previously was the executive director of the Republican Attorneys General Association, there is little other publicly available information about First Principles. There’s no tax filing to determine other board members or employees. No documents that detail where First Principles Action’s money comes from. No information at this point to see who else First Principles Action might have donated to in this election cycle.
That million-dollar donation is the darkest of dark money.”
