Ted Cruz (R-Texas) opened and called for an investigation into Anheuser-Busch over its collaboration with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney, saying that the company was potentially marketing its products to a younger audience through the partnership. <\/p>\n<p>Cruz and Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cruz.senate.gov\/newsroom\/press-releases\/sens-cruz-blackburn-open-and-call-for-probe-of-bud-light-potentially-marketing-to-underage-individuals-through-partnership-with-dylan-mulvaney\">sent a letter<\/a> to Brendan Whitworth, the Anheuser-Busch CEO and chairman of the Beer Institute, urging him to open an investigation into whether the company violated guidelines that prohibit beer companies from promoting their products to a younger audience. The Beer Institute is the beer industry\u2019s self-regulatory body that establishes buying and advertising guidelines for beer companies to follow. <\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr1_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>The senators allege that Mulvaney\u2019s TikTok <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a>, \u201cDays of Girlhood,\u201d skews her audience to those whose ages are younger than the Beer Institute\u2019s guidelines. <\/p>\n<p>The letter specifically pointed to various TikTok videos Mulvaney posted leading up to her partnership with Bud Light, where she posted a sponsored video of her drinking a can of beer. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe use of the phrase \u2018Girlhood\u2019 was not a slip of the tongue but rather emblematic of a series of Mulvaney\u2019s online content that was specifically used to target, market to, and attract an audience of young people who are well below the legal drinking age in the United States,\u201d the senators wrote. <\/p>\n<p>They called on Whitworth to cut the company\u2019s ties with Mulvaney and apologize for allegedly marketing its products to an underage audience. The duo also asked for more information about how the company vets its partnerships, specifically its collaboration with Mulvaney. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe would urge you, in your capacity at Anheuser-Busch, to avoid a lengthy investigation by the Beer Institute by instead having Anheuser-Busch publicly sever its relationship with Dylan Mulvaney, publicly apologize to the American people for marketing alcoholic beverages to minors, and direct Dylan Mulvaney to remove any Anheuser-Busch content from\u201d her <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social media<\/a> platforms, the senators wrote. <\/p>\n<p>Cruz also reiterated the letter he sent while on <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/sen-ted-cruz-calls-probe-bud-light-dylan-mulvaney-ad-campaign-marketing-children\">\u201cFox and Friends\u201d<\/a> Thursday, accusing Anheuser-Busch of marketing its content to teenagers. <\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr2_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re calling on the Beer Institute to investigate the degree to which Anheuser-Busch knowingly was marketing to children in going down this road,\u201d Cruz said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Copyright 2023 Nexstar Media Inc.
