The Breitbart News reported Wednesday that hundreds of businesses, including Starbucks, Amazon and Netflix, have signed a letter expressing their opposition to election integrity efforts in numerous states, claiming to oppose any “discriminatory” related legislation.
Senior black business leaders, Kenneth Chenault, former chief executive of American Express, and Kenneth Frazier, chief executive of Merck, launched the effort.
Signatories include Bank of America, Amazon, Estee Lauder, General Motors, Netflix, Starbucks, Synchrony Financial, Nordstrom, PayPal, Peloton, Pinterest, United Airlines, Twitter, Under Armour, etc.
According to the New York Times, Coca-Cola and Delta, who spoke out after Joe State passed its election integrity law, did not sign the letter. Neither did The Home Depot, one of whose co-founders, Ken Langone, is a big supporter of Mr. Trump. JPMorgan Chase also declined to sign the statement, despite a personal request from senior black business leaders to CEO Jamie Dimon, according to people familiar with the matter.
“The Election Integrity Act makes it easy to vote and hard to cheat,” Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) said during a March appearance on Breitbart’s Daily News. The four most important things are the replacement of the old signature matching with voter ID on absentee ballots; securing ballot boxes 24/7; requiring poll workers to continue tabulating until all ballots are counted; and finally, the expansion of voting access, especially on weekends. “
Breitbart News readers said, “Thank you for letting me know who to boycott! Let’s see the full list. “
Another reader said, “Corporations working hand in hand with powerful governments to implement policies is called the “corporate state” and is a key element of the classic fascist doctrine. We need to stop dealing with these fascist corporations.”
