If it is really just because of money, why can't companies supporting net neutrality donate to him and other senators to get the law passed in the Senate? There are way more companies can do this than a few ISPs, and they have tons of money. Your simplistic view does not hold water.

The big tech companies most affected by this law actually don't care too much about it, because it disproportionally hurts startups that are competing with them or will compete with them in the future.

Netflix, Google/YouTube, Amazon/Twitch etc. will be able to afford to pay ISPs extra for the fast lanes.

Startups and companies that could never take off because of appearing slow to their potential users cannot afford lobbyists and political donations.

Many of the companies that are "pro net neutrality" or at least are incentivized to support it have many, many, many other concerns for lobbying, legislation, and budget. Engaging in a race to the bottom over a single issue is probably not a strategy that people are willing to take.

ISPs on the other hand have few other issues quite as important.

It's true that ISPs may have fewer issues, but there are just too few of them. On the other hand, there are way more "pro net neutrality" companies and net neutrality is not the least important issue for them.
