(CNN Business) Last month, Sen. Elizabeth Warren made headlines by releasing a plan to break up tech giants like Facebook, Google and Amazon. Now, one powerful organization is coming to the tech industry's defense on the issue: the conservative Koch network. The online ads are running in the home states of each of the 22 senators on the committee, primarily on Facebook and Twitter. Those who click on the ads will be directed to a page where they can sign a letter to the committee members. Jesse Blumenthal, who leads tech and innovation for the Koch network, told CNN Business that the organization has been tracking the antitrust issue "for awhile" and speaking in person with members of the Judiciary Committee on both sides of the aisle.
