All the more reason we need to stand up for our democracy now.

There are four candidates who are on the ballot for just about every voter in America.

We want to be inclusive. We want to have our shareholders, our employees, our customers, whether they are Democrat, Republican, Green or Libertarian, to feel comfortable with how we're doing business.
