        Is that legal? Definitely not ethical. But if Georgia is stupid I’m sure lots of other states would welcome @Delta! Pretty sure Georgia needs Delta more than Delta needs Ga.

        Since when did the state of Georgia become a communist state that believes it has the power to coerce a company into supporting another entity? Sounds like this lieutenant governor graduated from a Russian school of government.

        Maybe @delta can align themselves with the LGBTQ community. That would really get under the GA Lt Governor’s skin. Thank you @Delta for doing what is right.

        I can assure you that ATL needs Delta more than Delta needs Atlanta. Come to RDU, we will be happy to have you hub here in Raleigh- Durham.

        We’ll see how he feels if Delta moves their corporate offices and Hub from Atlanta. The economic impact would be disastrous for the GA economy.

        Private company. Government out of control. More than unethical.

        Private company = free to have & express political preferences. Government official = supposed to represent constituents, not to selectively extort private industry based on politics.
