Bowyer Research, on behalf of Alliance Defending Freedom, has submitted a shareholder proposal urging PayPal Holdings, Inc. to report on respecting workforce civil liberties. The proposal emphasizes the potential risks and legal implications associated with the company's diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. It argues that DEI practices can be divisive, stifle viewpoint diversity, and lead to legal challenges based on recent Supreme Court decisions. The proposal suggests that companies should focus on respecting individual dignity and promoting viewpoint diversity to avoid legal and reputational risks. It also highlights the financial risks of corporate activism, citing examples of companies that have suffered financially after engaging in controversial political debates. The proposal calls for greater transparency and accountability in DEI practices and suggests that a report on these issues would benefit both the company and its shareholders by identifying potential risks and aligning the company with the diverse views of its stakeholders.
