Tell Dillard's to Cut Ties With Anti-Abortion Group
- av: Ms. magazine
- mottagare: Chairman and CEO William Dillard President, Director Alex Dillard SVP, CFO, and Director James Freeman
On April 9th, Dillard's Memorial City of Houston will be hosting a fashion show to raise money that will fuel an anti-abortion campaign in the Houston area.
Dillard's is aiding a right-wing anti-abortion group that has been known to use controversial billboards targeting African Americans in urban areas. The funds raised through the fashion show will likely go towards more controversial targeting and anti-choice advocacy.
This will be the second time that Dillard's has hosted a fundraising event for the anti-choice group, and the first fashion show raised $45,000. Around the country, women shop at Dillard's, not knowing that the retail corporation is supporting groups dedicated to taking away their reproductive rights.
Dillard's corporate office must put a stop to this support and make sure that they don't fund any more attacks on women's rights. Demand that they cancel the April 9th fundraiser and cut all ties to anti-choice groups.
We the undersigned are deeply disappointed in your company and its fundraising for groups who are dedicated to restricting women's reproductive rights. We urge you to support women everywhere and cut all ties to anti-choice groups.
