📣📣We won y'all! WE WON!!!!! We are finally, fully done with CoreCivic, who sued us when they didn't want to face the truth: that THEY SEPARATE FAMILIES. 📣📣🧵(video cont'd)

[Morgan Simon @MorganSimon1]

That’s up to the American public. If Trump is eligible for the White House, we should consider opening opportunities for others with similar records too. #Equality #Justice #CriminalJusticeReform #PresidentialEligibility #jacksmith #onelawforall #reform #criminaljusticereform #34felonies

People convicted of felonies should be allowed to stay with their families in public housing, work various jobs, and travel to expand their horizons. But should they serve as President?

[CalPERS @CalPERS]

We are fighting for shareholder rights, “If @ExxonMobil succeeds in silencing voices and upending the rules of shareholder democracy, what other subjects will the leaders of any company make off limits? Worker safety? Excessive executive compensation?”

[George Ashton @GeorgeAshtonIII]

I am thrilled to announce that I will be joining the @CandideGroup as their new CEO. I will have the privilege of leading the organization with impact experts and founding partners, @Anerbenami and @MorganSimon1.

[Morgan Simon @MorganSimon1]

If you’re an ExxonMobil shareholder, review the issues and vote your proxy. Together, we can ensure our voices are heard. #ProxyVote #CorporateResponsibility 10/10

[Morgan Simon @MorganSimon1]

This move by CalPERS is a powerful reminder of the importance of shareholder democracy and the critical role of investors in corporate governance. #InvestorActivism 9/10

[Morgan Simon @MorganSimon1]

🔹 CalPERS stance:"CalPERS believes the existing rules work for both shareholders and corporate America. ExxonMobil is seeking radical change. Shareholder rights are a cornerstone of CalPERS' approach to corporate governance." #SustainableFinance 8/10

[Morgan Simon @MorganSimon1]

🔹 Broader implications:"This is not just about climate change. The lawsuit could set a precedent that affects all shareholder rights, from worker safety to executive compensation." #SustainableInvesting 7/10

[Morgan Simon @MorganSimon1]

🔹 Background: Exxon Mobil sued two investors after they filed a resolution asking the company to address its greenhouse gas emissions targets. Despite withdrawing the proposal, Exxon’s lawsuit continues, seeking to prohibit future climate-related resolutions. #ClimateAction 6/10

[Morgan Simon @MorganSimon1]

🔹 Our action:"On May 29, 2024, CalPERS will cast our shareholder votes in opposition to all 12 members of ExxonMobil’s board of directors and its CEO. We urge other shareholders to do the same." #ProxyVote #ExxonMobil 5/10

[Morgan Simon @MorganSimon1]

🔹 The threat:"Decades of shareholder rights are under threat from a lawsuit filed by ExxonMobil, designed to punish investors who dared to speak truth to power. If successful, this could diminish the rights of every investor." #CorporateAccountability 4/10

[Morgan Simon @MorganSimon1]

🔹 Why this matters:"When you own shares of stock in a publicly traded company, you have a vested interest in how that company is run. You have a right to have your concerns heard by corporate directors and executives." 3/10

[Morgan Simon @MorganSimon1]

🚨 In a historic move, @CalPERS, the nation’s largest pension fund, has announced their decision to vote against @exxonmobil's CEO and entire board of directors slate, urging others to follow suit. 🚨 @ICCRonline #CorporateGovernance 🧵1/10
