ATT sent the following letter to it's employees. This is a letter telling ATT employees they will contribute the the ATT/WarnerMedia Federal PAC or else. Won't be long before they'll have them filling out absentee ballots under a managers supervision. This is bad.
To All PAC-Eligible Employees:
A critical component of our company’s efforts to be a responsible corporate citizen is actively participating in the political process. We do this in a variety of ways, including through corporate and employee political action committee (PAC) contributions consistent with our core values.
Employees on our Federal PAC Board recently convened a call to discuss actions and votes taken in last week’s Joint Session of Congress and decided to suspend contributions to members of Congress who voted to object to certification of Electoral College votes last week.
To be clear, prior to the joint session of Congress, we publicly opposed efforts to delay or overturn the certification of Electoral College votes.
As our CEO John Stankey said last week, freedom, democracy and rule of law are America’s bedrock and must never be usurped. We congratulate President-elect Biden and Vice President-elect Harris on their Electoral College victory. There is much to be done to move the country forward.

Is this even legal???
Patriots may need to wean themselves off of the internet.
Please tell me this is Unconstitutional.
You don’t show any source for this ‘news’.
Doesn’t matter if it is or not. If it helps the dnc it will be upheld.
Be a good comrade and give us back some of your wages/salary so we can give it to your communist masters. /sarc
AT&T doesn’t make enough money on its own to buy politicians, but needs to hit up employees too?
As I recall - and this may only be from when I was in California, this is NOT legal - there was a lawsuit and it was not legal. Very much like having to join a union or have your dues taken regardless of membership is not legal.
“Democracy”. “Rule of Law.”
Don’t make me laugh ATT.
Eff the hell off, in fact.
I don’t see anything in the letter telling employees that they have to donate to this Company PAC. Yes, I see some groveling from the CEO kissing up to the Washington DC overlords, but nothing that tells the employees that they have to contribute. Did I miss it?
CEO John Skanky (?!)
Now it is run by enormous Big Tech with way too much power. Get off the Cloud. The Cloud is the method that Big Tech uses to control data, which is everything.
Create a movement like open source where cloud providers have to sign on to not being able to restrict free speech.
This would be illegal if they were Republicans.
source? If not, then I can report this to the mods. At least show a screenshot of the memo.
Make the Internet a utility like telephone poles. Screw Big Tech. They cannot police themselves and have way too much power over communication.
In a democracy, you can vote or give to whomever you desire. In a dictatorship, you are told where to donate.
I wouldn’t work for AT&T if they paid me :-)
There is nothing there that says employees have to contribute to the company PAC.
Its like contributing to a company United Way fund.
You may recall me saying....
CNN is ATT
