I'm opposed to strict abortion bans, and I'm sure many of these signatures are coming from a sincere place, but, uh wow. Anything so easily interpreted as "fewer abortions is bad for business" is a terrible look, and it plays right into the most cynical opposition worldviewhttps://twitter.com/asglidden/status/1138303677125410816 …
As a general rule, try to imagine that the people who disagree with you generally *really do believe* the things they say they believe, and then don't try to persuade them with arguments that would parse to *anything like* "not killing babies is super bad for the bottom line."
From a purely strategic POV, you've now made it impossible for any politician with a firmly pro-life base to do anything that might even just *look* like giving you what you want, because your message is not just wrong but decidedly evil to these people
Frankly, it's a squicky pitch even for a lot of people who support abortion access on the grounds that it's a deeply personal issue. If they don't want it adjudicated by local governments or religious orgs, you think they want corporations weighing in?
I hope all y'all are offering your employees medical that covers fertility treatments — HINT: most of you are not — because when you're accused of trying to keep your employees childless for your own benefit, your "reproductive choice" soap box may just crumple in on itself
tldr; my thoughts on the object-level issue are complicated, but I *am* confident that if (a) you signed this and (b) your head of PR is not hogtied in a closet somewhere, you have a very serious problem
Totally get your point... but do you get theirs? Woman whose unplanned pregnancies go to term due to lack of access to abortion are educationally and economically disadvantaged. I believe this is the main point they're trying to make.
That's not really a point they make, and it's not a point they *can* press on, because "our employees cannot afford to have children while they're working for us" is, again, a terrible look.
Also, CEOs sending out a message that the “economic stability” of their own employees depends on easy access to abortion ... is a somewhat Orwellian and macabre signal to send to employees who are expectant mothers or thinking of starting a family
