When Hillary Clinton became secretary of state, the former president agreed to disclose his donors to the White House, according to the Associated Press. The Obama administration has the right to review whether there are potential conflicts with Hillary Clinton's work overseas.
Other groups that donated at least $1 million were the Elton John AIDS Foundation, Coca-Cola and the Eli & Edythe Broad Foundation
