With some of the most familiar names in corporate America lining up with the Democrats against Republican election integrity bills moving through statehouses — and Major League Baseball even pulling its All-Star Game from Atlanta to protest Georgia’s election reform law — a growing chorus on the right is demanding that conservatives marshall their own collective market power to fight the left’s successful use of economic pressure to force corporate compliance with the progressive agenda.
On Monday, the Conservative Clergy of Color, a group of black ministers and pastors, ran a full-page ad in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution as part of an effort to “correct the lies” they say President Joe Biden, progressive activist Stacey Abrams and corporate leaders like the CEOs of Delta Airlines and Coca Cola have been spreading about the Georgia Election Integrity Act of 2021.
We are “seeing a grassroots movement … against Coca-Cola, against Delta, and any other organization that at wants to participate” in the Democrats’ offensive against the Georgia voting bill, Pastor Aubrey Shines, the CEO of the Conservative Clergy of Color, told “Just the News AM” earlier this week. “We are going to make sure that our dollars and our votes are not going their way. Enough is enough.”
More than 100 of the nation’s top corporate leaders met virtually on Saturday to discuss ways their companies might mobilize against a wave of Republican-backed election reform bills sweeping through state legislatures across the nation. The election reforms — centered around measures like signature-matching and voter ID — were prompted by widespread allegations of voting irregularities in the 2020 election cycle associated with the shift to mass mail-in voting and the privately funded partisan outsourcing of traditionally neutral and public election administration functions. Democrats have decried such reforms as racially discriminatory ploys to suppress minority votes, with Biden even likening Georgia’s new law to “Jim Crow in the 21st century.”
