In a piece for Fast Company, the founding leaders of the Business & Democracy Initiative—Daniella Ballou-Aares, Samantha Tweedy, and Rhett Buttle—make the case for why business leaders must lead the charge to protect elections.
They write, “Threats to democracy and election legitimacy are threats to economic stability.”
During this election, it’s crucial to remember that threats to democratic processes—from disinformation to intimidation of election workers—not only endanger our democracy but also the stability that supports our economy.
In an organized effort, business leaders across the country—including over 150 executives, 500+ small business owners, and 20+ associations—are speaking out: protecting democracy is a business imperative.
Learn how business leaders can protect democracy, in this article "Economic stability depends on democracy."
