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
