When Russia invaded Ukraine, many businesses were quick to make statements and take action. And there were plenty of companies that made similar stands on COVID-19 vaccinations and racial equality. But a new report has found that when it comes to abortion, most companies are staying out of the debate.
A new report from nonprofit The Conference Board found that only 10% of 300 public, private and nonprofit corporations surveyed have made, or plan to make, a public statement in response to the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to overturn the Roe vs. Wade and Casey vs. Planned Parenthood cases that established a constitutional right to abortion.
Most of the remaining 90% of corporations said they responded or plan to respond internally. Nearly a third said they do not plan to respond at all.
