Top CEOs Vow To Fight Voting Restrictions – Do You Support Their Efforts?

I would support them if some of them really did what they say, speaking out of both sides of their $ seems to be their schict. As it turns out it was not as it appeared with many still supporting the gop/gqp with some even funding the inserection coup of this country. If that alone does not make a corp. (small c) take a stand, grow a pair and not support this kind of behavior I do not know what will. Yes, it would be a good thing if each supported we the people's right to vote also but then again with Citizens United some think they are the people and speak for each of our we the people's majority votes or one person, one vote. Does not sound like democracy to me, in fact more like corporate socialist cronyism to put it kindly. Anti-capitalism, free markets competion squed in favor of only a few, anti democratic and anti American. With covid delta #s rising again sure would be a good thing also if they started to take a stand on that one too. Proof, some corps. certainly are not people, at least not good ones, humane or worthy of representing the citizens of this country. How's that economy going to be working for ya. Say it, mean it and put your $ where your mouth is. We already know and will find out anyway and it just makes you look even more sleazy than in fact you are.

Yes, but if their vow is like some of their handshakes it is meaningless. Kind of like some politicians. Get it in writing and sign the contract. Put your money where your mouth is or put up and shut up. You either believe in this countries democratic principles or you don't. Either way, I also believe in the things have a way of working themselves out or karma so to speak, they always do. The majority of we the people will not stand for these authoritarian voter supression, inserection behaviors therefore will also not back the corporations/politicians/people that do also. I'm surprised that these cos. are so inept in/at market stratagies, market value or in plain speak simply doing the right, moral and ethical thing. Oh yeah, corruption, in the long run they only hurt their own businesses. The people and justice in the end will always win, rule the day and will not tolerate these practices. Empty words and actions are a common conglomeration these days. How refreshing are the wise and courageous few who's words along with their actions actually means something.

THIS MUST BE MORE THAN TALK.

Disappointed to read, after 2-page @nytimes ad supporting Voting Rights many corporations have reverted to making donations to #Republicans who have participated in #VoterSuppression efforts. This is hypocritical & those corps should be boycotted by #Americans they no longer support.

Our votes are being attacked on all sides.....in Maricopa County, Arizona....the Republicans have turned over the actual ballots from the 2020 election to some whackadoodle Qanon supporting company called Cyber Ninja....who has absolutely NO experience in the counting of votes....and get this, they are only recounting the votes for the Democratic Representative and Joe Biden......none of the voting is being checked if a Republican won......Maricopa has already done 3 recounts including a hand count AND Joe Biden was certified as President.....No one is allowed in to witness this count from either party...only one local journalist was allowed in and she noted that people had BLUE pens on the floor.....when recounts only allow RED pens to that ballots cannot be compromised.....apparently the head of Cyber Ninja "wasn't aware" that this was a No-No!....Trump, of course , has weighed into this and is quite gleeful......what?.....you just keep "counting" the votes until you get the result your desire?.....EVERYONE should be hair on fire screaming about this!

Voter restriction, attacking a free press, promoting falsehoods, promoting hate, promoting division, insurrection. These are the anti-America, anti-democracy policies destroying America. Not from outsiders, but from republicans. From Trump the republicans god, McConnell and ALL the Republican senators, ALL the republican congressman. They do not stand for America, they stand to their false god Trump. There followers were/are easily conned. So yes, the CEO’s of the corporations should stand up for America, for democracy and do this by not financially supporting the insurrection party, the republicans. Once the republicans are gone America will be better and great again.

Yes and we should be repealing Citizens United. Corporations and companies should not be recognized as “people” the individuals that work for the corporations or companies are people not the company. CEOs as individuals have the right to express their views regarding policies and how they are against their company corporate social responsibility.

Funny how McConnell is perfectly OK with corporations donating to the GOP's campaigns (and thereby expressing their opinions) but apparently they should only shut up if their opinions do not agree with the GOP's.

CEOs will not be cowed by a radicalized fundamentalist ultra right wingnut Fascist GOP. Fascist Herr Trump is gone. Some are attempting to take his place picking up where he left off. GOP token Hispanic, Foreign norm immigrant Eduardo Raphael Cruz, who everyone knows is using the Senate as a steppingstone to the presidency. Unfortunately, his ill-conceived vacation to Foreign country Mexico during the worst Texas winter storm on record will be his downfall. Anyone THAT stupid should not be elected for dog catcher.

I personally believe that every tax-paying citizen or entity registered and primarily owned within the USA should have 1 vote to express their rights and beliefs.

Our lawmakers are bought and paid for by the rich the only thing they do is put laws into place that they are given by their corporate donors if they won't do their job thank God corporations are finally feeling the pressure from the people that are lawmakers don't.

Stop bribing our congress with bookdeals

Everyone, including corporations who have major power in Washington DC should promote more fair and accessible voting laws, locations and ability to register! There should not be any hindrances of any kind to any American and their ability to vote! That right is protected by the Constitution of the United States!

Everyone should fight restrictive voting laws. To do anything else is Un-American.

Making corporations equal to people has come back to bite Republicans in the butt!

Nice to know there are over 5.6 MILLION COMPANIES in America who are the backbone of America. Not just the 100+ CEOs (many who didn’t identify their company) activists that signed the letter of “their opinion” of the new Georgia voting law as restrictive. Get out of politics & make me want to buy your products or invest in your business! 36 states require ID to register to vote & maybe they could help communities obtain ID that are provided free in states.

I read the changes and they make sense. Georgia has one of the least restrictive absentee voting rules We do not need societal engineering from Big Business

Corporate leaders have some responsibility to speak up for community of people that they serve. I am glad to see more Corporate CEO’s using their position to comment on issues which threaten our country; a country of the people, by the people and for the people. … … … I believe that the Republican Party wasted several opportunities to rid themselves of trumplovianism and are trapped by their prior rhetoric - and maybe by preaching to themselves in their own echo chamber of the FOX entertainment news and other bombastic right wing entertainment outlets, have come to believe the really distorted world-view that their majority espouses. Right now the Republican Party is at out of sync with the majority of Republican voters on the Covid Relief bill as well as the infrastructure bill - yet they still persist because they don’t want to see these Democratic initiatives succeed - for the only reason of not allowing the Democrats gaining any political advantage. That is why the RNC and Republicans are rushing legislation to limit the ability of Democratic demographically leaning voters to cast there votes. It is a classic case of ‘if it ain’t broke but we don’t like the results, we need to break it to get the results we want’ - or letting the political party pick the voters they like. It would be so much better if the Republicans would re-learn how to legislate and negotiate instead of just obstruct.

Almost every single claim being made about the Georgia voting laws recently is either incorrect or an outright lie. The law does not prevent voters from having access to water while waiting in line. It does not force polling locations to close at 5:00pm. And, contrary to our President's claim, minorities are not too stupid to get a photo ID. Show me a single part of this Bill that actually prevents any American citizen from voting. Ironically, MLB moved their All Star game to a city with a far higher percentage of white people and more restrictive voting laws. But then, this was never about trying to protect people's right to vote...it was just a power grab and virtue signaling which has become the hallmark of the Left.

Wonder how half of their shares holders feel? Many of CEOs have no problem with China, why not? Could it be money? While I try to carefully pick my where I invest or spend my money, I don’t approve of them representing my money. Use your voice as an individual, not the company.
