Exxon Rejects Gay Non-Discrimination Bid

| | Comments (0)

Today, I will be calling Exxon/Mobil to cancel my Mobil/Exxon card as well as my Mobil/Exxon Speed Pass. I like the speed pass because it is convenient. But, I’m not about to buy gasoline at a company who doesn’t give a damn about all of it’s workers.

If they will not put in place job protection against their workers to guarantee they are not fired or demoted for being gay, I will not do business with them.

I urge you all to do the same. If you do, contact them to let them know. The number to call to cancel your account is 800-344-4355.

SUPPORT OUR COMMUNITY!

(Dallas, Texas) For the seventh consecutive year shareholders in ExxonMobil have rejected an attempt to include sexual orientation in the company’s non-discrimination policy.

At the oil company’s annual meeting Wednesday in Dallas, shareholders voted 29.4 percent in favor of giving LGBT workers protection. It was the highest support the measure has yet received.

ExxonMobil is the only U.S. company that has ever rescinded a non-discrimination policy covering sexual orientation. (source)
