----------------------

This is an advocacy group that is all in for abortion, enlisting corporate support. And they want everyone to know it.

The first thing we wonder about this is, why do these companies want to drive away pro life customers? Why would a business want to alienate a substantial part of their potential clientele?

Second, we note the irony of describing a policy that will kill future clients as being good for business.

Third, we note that this issue is represented as a matter of equality, which implies that bearing children makes people unequal. Where this disdain for families comes from is mystifying.

Last, we wonder how being against the murder of unborn children is hindering peoples' health.
-----------------------

Equality in the workplace is one of the most important business issues of our time. (Unsupported assertion.)

When everyone is empowered to succeed, our companies, our communities, and our economy are better for it. (Unsupported assertion.)

Restricting access to comprehensive reproductive care, including abortion, threatens the health,  independence and economic stability of our employees and customers. (Unsupported assertion.)

Simply put, it goes against our values, and is bad for business. (Unsupported assertion.)

It impairs our ability to build diverse and inclusive workforce pipelines, recruit top talent across the states, and protect the wellbeing of all the people who keep our businesses thriving day in and out. (Unsupported assertion.)

The future of equality hangs in the balance, putting our families, communities, businesses, and the economy at risk. (Unsupported assertion.)

We, the undersigned, employ more than 108,000 workers (The number of people employed is 156,758,000. That is .0689% of the workforce.)

and stand against policies that hinder people’s health, independence, and ability to fully succeed in the workplace. (Unsupported assertion.)

It’s time for companies to stand up for reproductive health care.
