Editor's Notes When it comes to the fallout from the 2020 elections, some of the clearest lines in the sand are being drawn by the country's top businesses. Back in January, a move by corporations to suspend PAC donations to Repbulicans after the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol felt like a new wave of corporate social responsibility rising in real-time. So I was struck this week by a big statement signed by top business leaders opposing the voting restrictions in Georgia that were passed last month. We saw Atlanta-based businesses speak out in recent weeks, and Major League Baseball move its All-Star Game from the state. But the many prominent names on yesterday's letter carry a louder voice still. Do you think this will have a role in shaping how companies engage in the public square going forward? Is there a role for business in politics to build on here? As a technologist on our public Slack pointed out yesterday, it seems to be a case where businesses feel that speaking out is fundamental to democracy, rather than a matter of more narrowly defined politics. What do you think about the role of businesses in shaping public discourse? Reply here or email[email protected]. — Technical.ly Assistant Editor Stephen Babcock ([email protected]) P.S.
