Four major corporations have spoken out against recent Texas election reform bills.
One of the pieces of legislation, Senate Bill 7, would limit extended early voting hours, ban drive-thru voting and prohibit local election officials from automatically sending mail-in-voting applications to voters, according to The Texas Tribune.
Senate Bill 7 also gives more power to poll watchers and requires a doctor’s note for Texans with disabilities who are requesting to vote by mail, as reported by The Associated Press.
American Airlines criticized the legislation in a statement released Thursday: “Earlier this morning, the Texas State Senate passed legislation with provisions that limit voting access. To make American’s stance clear: We are strongly opposed to this bill and others like it.”
"Any legislation dealing with how elections are conducted must ensure ballot integrity and security while making it easier to vote, not harder. At American, we believe we should break down barriers to diversity, equity and inclusion in our society – not create them,” the statement added.
Dell Technologies CEO Michael Dell announced his company’s opposition to House Bill 6, another Texas election reform bill, in a Twitter post:
Well guess I am not picking up a Dell for my 3D printer laptop.
Gues where I’m never going to spend another dime?
lol At this rate we're soon gonna have nowhere to spend our money. It's absolutely unreal how many corporations today are being run by deranged and drooling ass-clowns.
I wasn't buying anything from any of the companies so far.
Dell is shiiiiiiittttt. I am certain anyone who hates pc used a Dell.
AT&T = CNN
Unfortunately Directv who are one of the few who carry OAN.
Corporations doing the federal gov's bidding in exchange for funding... smells like... FASCISM. That's ok, I don't need to fly Delta or American or SW.
I've had a Dell credit card for well over a decade with quite a hefty limit, like 10k, and no balance. I was young when I got it but now build my computers so I haven't used it in years. I've always been reluctant to close it because it's my longest standing account and chips away at my overall credit card limits and credit age on my credit report. I guess the time has come to take a temporary hit and I will be closing the account. Thanks for posting this, I might never have known.
More companies to boycott!
This is easy the states like Texas and Georgia should remove Delta from it's airports and Coke from all state owned properties. They will STFU quick if that happens.
