Voting Rights Are Human Rights
Beehive Strategic Communication
We use the power of communication to build better businesses for a better world.
We’re inspired by the positive trend over the last year of more and more businesses stepping up and speaking out on behalf of fair, equitable elections. The right to vote is a nonpartisan issue deeply rooted in equity and inclusion — a key focus and core value for many organizations.
Voting rights is an equity issue, as these rights remain unequal for American citizens, especially Black, indigenous and people of color (BIPOC) whose voices are being discriminated against through bold, systemic legislation intended to suppress their votes.
Supporting and advocating for inclusive voting rights and for fair, accessible and secure elections provides a critical opportunity for businesses to authentically live their values and drive positive social and civic change.
Below, you’ll find resources and opportunities for organizations to take nonpartisan actions focused on protecting and advocating voting rights.
