Heritage is eliminating the Southern Poverty Law Center’s hate-filled influence in corporate America.
For years, the SPLC has smeared mainstream conservatives and conservative organizations as hateful bigots through their Hate Map.
Corporations then used the SPLC’s guidance to prevent employees from using employer matches to donate to conservative organizations—along with other woke corporate policies.
But that all changed when The Heritage Foundation began fighting back.
Through our Free Enterprise Initiative, we used the power of our endowment to file shareholder resolutions with major corporations to force them to disaffiliate from the Southern Poverty Law Center.
Thanks to our effective negotiations, Meta, Salesforce, and Mastercard have already agreed to stop using the SPLC’s diagnostic tools—including its Hate Map—across all aspects of their business, including charitable giving programs.
Additionally, we have pending shareholder proposals related to the SPLC at Amazon and Alphabet.
Heritage will not stop until all of corporate America recognizes the SPLC for what it is. Not a trustworthy source of information, but a radical, left-wing organization dedicated to defaming regular Americans who love our country.
Thank you for supporting this important work to take back our institutions.
Best,
Tony Johnso
