Do you support the boycott of corporations that fund voter suppression efforts?

In the last year, the GOP has been rushing to enact laws making it more difficult to vote. In 31 states controlled by Republicans since the sweep of 2010, some form of voter suppression laws have been put on the books. There is no evidence of large-scale voting fraud, so these laws are not designed to solve some looming problem. As it stands, these laws will impact as many as 20 million Americans who are largely registered Democrats, and will target college students and young people being able to easily register. Again, this is a demographic that largely votes Democratic. These voter suppression moves include changes in voter ID laws, elimination or reduction of early voting, making it easier to throw out votes with polling place challenges, and restrictions that make voter registration drives impossible. This legislation has been pushed by a right-wing advocacy group called ALEC that falsely hides behind a claim of nonpartisanship. ALEC is heavily funded by corporations and billionaires who will profit from the agenda to increase economic disparity that they advocate for. And of course, if ALEC can limit democracy and thus gain more control, then they can better enact legislation favoring the privileged few.

Do you support the petition drive to ask Walmart and other corporate donors to drop their funding of ALEC? Coca Cola has already pulled their funding. Can it work?
