Imagine you're a wealthy CEO who funds politicians. Obviously you're evil and the only thing you care about is money.

Suddenly you start making less money because people are upset about violence against women. The path to you making more money again is for the government to address this issue. So you use your considerable influence to make it happen.

Wealthy people are simple minded and easy to manipulate. Just make it more profitable to do what's right and they will.
