Behind the scenes, though, the company has been working hard to change its
profile as an ally of the Democratic Party, courting Republicans and
building alliances with conservatives at a time when regulators and
Congress are considering issues affecting its business interests.
.
Google has hired a string of Republican operatives as part of an effort to
build relationships with GOP lawmakers and has evened out the campaign
donations from its political-action committee, which had skewed in favor
of Democratic candidates.
.
In 2011, Google began ramping up its funding of an array of conservative
groups, including some that oppose the company's policy stances, which
include support for gay marriage, relaxing restrictions on immigration and
reducing greenhouse gases.
.
Google's quiet evolution into a pragmatic, inside-Washington player
mirrors a broader shift by many major companies in Silicon Valley. Tech
companies such as Facebook FB -1.10% and Twitter TWTR -1.84% have been
staffing up in the capital, eager to head-off regulation that could harm
their businesses.

Google also gave what it terms "substantial support" to other conservative
and libertarian groups, including the Heritage Foundation, the American
Enterprise Institute and Americans for Tax Reform. It gives the
libertarian Cato Institute $480,000 worth of free web advertising
annually, according to Cato. It gave the Federalist Society as much as
$49,000 last year, the group said.
.
It provided support to Heritage Action, which helped lead the charge to
defund the 2010 health-care law that prompted October's partial government
shutdown; to the American Conservative Union, which runs the annual CPAC
conference, a landmark on the conservative calendar; and to the American
Legislative Exchange Council, which writes model conservative legislation
for states and has drawn criticism from the left.
