Dear Friend, In these increasingly challenging times, while corporations are getting bailed out by the government, we must ensure that corporations are also being responsible and sustainable, for the sake of all people and the planet. Perhaps you are already involved in neighborhood organizing, recycling, composting, buying fair trade products, or using a community development bank or credit union. If you own stock directly (not in a mutual fund), there’s another step you can take to promote the well-being of workers, communities, and the environment. That step is to vote your proxy ballots. Are you voting yours? More than 400 shareholder resolutions have been filed for 2020, putting key issues in front of investors and corporate management. Here's a sampling of some of the issues and companies. If you’re concerned about corporate impacts on climate, human rights, fair pay, deforestation, or corporate funding for lobbying and elections – be sure to look closely at your proxy ballots. There may be resolutions you don’t want to miss voting on! For the latest information on the upcoming shareholder season, download your free copy of the 2020 Proxy Preview.
