WASHINGTON \u2013 Common Cause, Fair Fight Action und \u00fcber 300 Organisationen haben heute einen Brief verfasst, in dem sie gro\u00dfe Unternehmen wie Anheuser-Busch, Blue Cross Blue Shield Association, CenturyLink, Eli Lilly, UPS, FedEx, Oracle, State Farm, Raytheon, Salesforce, Pfizer und andere auffordern, ihre finanziellen Verbindungen zum American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) wegen dessen Unterst\u00fctzung der landesweiten Gesetze zur W\u00e4hlerunterdr\u00fcckung abzubrechen.<\/p>\r\n

ALEC hat seine Macht genutzt, um landesweit Gesetze zur W\u00e4hlerunterdr\u00fcckung im Jim-Crow-Stil auszuarbeiten und voranzutreiben. Sie haben sich mit extremen, dunklen Geldgruppen wie der Heritage Foundation zusammengetan, um zu versuchen, die unterdr\u00fcckerischsten und gef\u00e4hrlichsten Wahlgesetze durchzusetzen, die unser Land je gesehen hat.<\/p>\r\n

Jetzt wehren sich diese 300 Wahlrechtsorganisationen, die Amerikaner im ganzen Land vertreten, und wollen erreichen, dass ALEC von den Firmen, die sie finanzieren, zur Verantwortung gezogen wird. Dies ist der erste Schritt einer anhaltenden Kampagne, um sicherzustellen, dass ALEC zur Verantwortung gezogen wird und nicht l\u00e4nger die Mittel erh\u00e4lt, um den Willen des Volkes zu untergraben und unsere Demokratie zu st\u00fcrzen.<\/p>\r\n

UM DEN GANZEN BRIEF ZU LESEN, KLICKEN SIE HIER<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n \r\n

Common Cause-Pr\u00e4sidentin Karen Hobert Flynn gab die folgende Erkl\u00e4rung ab:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n

\u201eAnstatt Interessengruppen zu finanzieren, die unsere Wahlfreiheit einschr\u00e4nken, sollten sich Unternehmen der Bewegung anschlie\u00dfen, um das Versprechen der Demokratie f\u00fcr alle zu erf\u00fcllen. Deshalb schlie\u00dfen wir uns mehr als 300 Organisationen an, um alle Unternehmen aufzufordern, ihre Verbindungen zum American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) abzubrechen, der hinter den Kulissen daran arbeitet, das Wahlrecht einzuschr\u00e4nken. ALEC hat eine lange Geschichte darin, die Regeln zum Nachteil der Amerikaner zu manipulieren und dabei Ethik- und Steuergesetze zu umgehen. Wenn Unternehmen wirklich daran glauben, unsere Demokratie und das Wahlrecht zu sch\u00fctzen, m\u00fcssen sie ihre Verbindung zu ALEC beenden.\u201c<\/p>\r\n \r\n

Cliff Albright, Gesch\u00e4ftsf\u00fchrer und Mitbegr\u00fcnder von Black Voters Matter, gab die folgende Erkl\u00e4rung ab:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n

\"We have repeatedly said that corporations must stop funding the elected officials who sponsor and vote for voter suppression, and this demand is equally important in regards to conservative groups and think tanks who fuel the Jim Crow-era approach of creating and replicating racist legislation. These companies cannot hide behind the excuse that they only support ALEC because of their pro-business legislation. Companies are complicit if they are creating a pro-business environment by supporting anti-democratic organizations and policies. We will continue to hold them accountable. It will not be business as usual until they stand up for what is right.\"<\/p>\r\n \r\n

Scott Roberts, leitender Direktor f\u00fcr Strafjustiz und Demokratiekampagnen bei Color Of Change, gab die folgende Erkl\u00e4rung ab:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n

\u201cThese corporations are targeting Black voters with increasingly aggressive campaigns to suppress votes, disenfranchise communities, and spread dangerous misinformation. Through the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), dozens of corporations -- many of whom pledged solidarity with Black workers and consumers just last year -- are secretly funding efforts to silence Black voters. We see right through their hypocrisy, and we are issuing this letter to demand that these businesses take a stand for racial justice. It\u2019s time that corporations put real action behind their promises to promote racial equity and immediately cut ties with ALEC.\u201d<\/p>\r\n \r\n
