Businesses don't stay out of political disputes. They just normally do it quietly through donations and lobbying. They get vocal when the tide shows it will benefit them. That's not a bad thing as it can help propel important movements.

A common trick in the U.S. is to frame discussions of human rights as politics. Who gets to vote, marry, participate in sports or join the military are human rights decisions not merely political ones. Glad to see so many companies pushing back on these attacks on voting rights.

What exactly are the human rights being violated? Should companies also move out of Democratic states that have similar restrictions on voting?

Doesn't Colorado have similar voting laws, and haven't those companies been donating to both sides of this and other issues for years? It just seems like this hurts Georgia residents financially (which is all this does). Makes sense b/c Dems control Congress + the White House.

Are voters constitutionally qualified to vote? Do they cast votes in a constitutional manner? Are the votes counted in a constitutional manner? Is this what NYT means by voting limits?
