Want To Support Other Companies Besides Chick-fil-A?
Victor Fiorillo writing for The Philly Post wants his readers that boycotted Chick-Fil-A to also boycott companies that fail the Human Rights Campaign’s (HRC) Corporate Equality Index (CEI) (link to “Boycotting Chick-Fil-A? Add Four Seasons, Verizon and Radio Shack to the List”).
The CEI ranks “Fortune magazine’s 1,000 largest publicly-traded businesses”.
If you support Chick-Fil-A I want to encourage you to support these companies that “failed” the HRC’s CEI : )
Addendum
