Affirmative Action

Question: Would any of the affirmative action supporters on this board ever quit their job so a minority or someone not as qualified could have it?
Stupid question. I just wanted to share with you that while Republicans are doing away with affirmative action, fortune 500 companies are moving forward to make their companies more diverse.


All the signatories serve as leaders of their companies and have committed to implementing the following pledge within their workplaces.

The persistent inequities across our country underscore our urgent, national need to address and alleviate racial, ethnic and other tensions and to promote diversity within our communities. As leaders of some of America’s largest corporations, we manage thousands of employees and play a critical role in ensuring that inclusion is core to our workplace culture and that our businesses are representative of the communities we serve. Moreover, we know that diversity is good for the economy; it improves corporate performance, drives growth and enhances employee engagement.

Simply put, organizations with diverse teams perform better.

The Pledge
