Newsweek obtained a copy of Cruz’s letter to Anheuser-Busch CEO Brendan Whitworth, asking for the Beer Institute, a national trade association, to open an inquiry into the company’s marketing deal with Mulvaney (Whitworth is also Chairman of the Beer Institute). Cruz, who co-wrote the letter with far-right Tennessee senator Marsha Blackburn, is accusing Anheuser-Busch of “violating the Beer Institute’s Advertising/Marketing Code and Buying Guidelines prohibiting marketing to individuals younger than the legal drinking age.”Anheuser-Busch needs to answer questions about their advertising partnership with Dylan Mulvaney.Mulvaney’s content is directed at a younger audience.
