Two Republican lawmakers, seizing on newly surfaced Defense Department emails, are calling for hearings on Amazonâs efforts to win a cloud-computing contract for the U.S. military worth as much as $10 billion.
The emails, obtained through a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit brought by a former Pentagon inspector general who had also advised Donald Trump during the 2016 campaign, are related to a series of meetings then-Defense Secretary Jim Mattis held with executives from several tech companies, including Amazon, in August 2017. They show that Sally Donnelly, who had been a paid consultant for Amazon before joining the Pentagon as a senior adviser earlier that year, encouraged other officials to set up a meeting between Mattis and Amazon founder Jeff Bezos (who owns The Washington Post).
