WASHINGTON-Telecom and tech firms, some already in the wireless business and others planning to enter it, are helping foot the bill for President Bush’s inauguration Jan. 20.
The donors, according to the Presidential Inaugural Committee, include Qualcomm Inc. ($100,000), AT&T Corp. ($250,000), MCI ($25,000), Oracle Corp. ($100,000), SBC Communications Inc. ($100,000), Southern Co. ($250,000) and Time Warner ($250,000).
The committee has raised only about half of its $40 million goal.
