There is a profoundly important issue that is being grotesquely under covered in the media, particularly the business and tech media. It concerns the actions of 140 House Members led by @GOPLeader Kevin McCarthy and 7 US Senators on the night of January 6, 2021. This should not
be a difficult concept to grasp. 147 white members of the GOP congress rose for the purpose of nullifying black votes to maintain the loser of the election in political power. Had they been successful the American Republic would have fallen. The throwing out
Of millions of black votes is what that vote was about and that vote was immoral and UN American. No company can support any political committee that funds the people who voted to establish a new type of Jim Crow. They voted to strip the voice and rights away from millions of our
Fellow Americans on the basis of their skin color. Financing this evil cause that affronts our American values is unacceptable. This vote was an autocratic declaration steeped in the cancer of segregation.
It desecrated the martyrdom of Americans who gave their lives so that future generations would have a voice and take their rightful place in the nation’s story. @ProjectLincoln believes it is essential that the most important companies in America make a declaration and draw
A line in the sand. This moment demands moral clarity. It demands actions for the common good and compels the practice of citizenship in defense of democracy and the civil rights of millions of Black Americans. The largest corporations in America must act in a manner that is
consistent with their publically stated values. There is no world where companies can sign morning statements about BLM and attend evening cocktails with members who acted maliciously to strip the vote of Black Americans. @GOPLeader Kevin McCarthy led this effort. Who will
Write him checks ? Who will write checks to election denier and devotee of the Big Lie @SenRickScott at the @nrsc. ? Who will fund the committees that fund @HawleyMO @SenTedCruz @RonJohnsonWI and the other inciters of the insurrection ?
