Delta CEO Condemns Georgia’s Voter Suppression Law

Atlanta’s ABC News affiliate reports:

In a memo obtained by Channel 2 Action News and ABC News, Delta CEO Ed Bastian called Georgia’s new election laws “unacceptable” and “based on a lie.” It is the strongest statement that the Atlanta-based company has released regarding its opposition to the election overhaul.

Gov. Brian Kemp responds:

The last time I flew Delta, I had to present my photo ID. Today’s statement by Delta CEO Ed Bastian stands in stark contrast to our conversations with the company, ignores the content of the new law, and unfortunately continues to spread the same false attacks being repeated by partisan activists. The truth is the Election Integrity Act expands voting access and protects the sanctity and security of the ballot box.

Dear @Delta:

You are business partners with the Communist Party of #China

When can we expect your letter saying that their ongoing genocide in #Xinjiang is “unacceptable and does not match Delta’s values”??? #WokeCorporateHypocrites
