Salesforce CEO: We're Helping Employees Move Out of Indiana

Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff said Wednesday that he is helping employees who are uncomfortable with Indiana's controversial religious freedom law to transfer out of the state.

The move is in response to a law signed last week by Indiana Gov. Mike Pence that allows businesses to refuse service to gay, lesbian and transgender people on religious grounds.

Benioff had already pledged to reduce his company's investments in Indiana, calling the law "brutal," "unfair" and "unjust." The cloud computing CEO said he is working with state officials in hopes of changing the statute.

Moving employees out of the state is a new step, however, and one of the most aggressive corporate actions taken in response to the new law.

Benioff told CNN's Poppy Harlow that several employees have asked for transfers -- and he has agreed, even supplying relocation packages.

Why wasn’t these lies in their “gay” site? “Sanctified” rites? How can they get away with printing these lies? I loathe that piece of refuge site.

No, they do not need help. I am slowly starting to believe the muzzies have the right idea when it comes to queers.

Not really, but I am just about as sick of the queers as the muzzies.

Why don’t they just buy their wedding cake at a bakery whose owner celibates gay marriage?

Because their goal is to force total silence and obedience of all who do not agree with their perverted lifestyle choices. Christianity is directly in the crosshairs because of what God teaches on this subject. The fags and libtards cannot afford to have anyone for any reason to oppose them and their gestapo goons.

Absolutely.
But in the country we live in popular opinion ultimately rules the laws and the courts and that requires convincing arguments, and I see very few from our side on this.

Its upsetting because I see homosexual sex as perversion.

How is this a bad thing? Since the company headquarters is in San Francisco, I assume they’ll move there. Win-win.

>>>God help us if we do not stick together and get rid of the @ssholes who are ruining our country day by day.<<<

Do you have any contact with Millenials? It’s a glimpse into the future of America. Their values will become America’s values. God is irrelevant to most of them imho. Porn is everywhere. Hooking up is no big deal. It’s harder to land good jobs so the men have less opportunity to marry and start a family. We took women out of the home and devalued many things that used to be laudatory. Such as fideltiy, hard work, raising children and delayed gratification. The current generation is the fruit of what has been sown.

Pence should form a committee to start convincing companies to leave CA, NY, CT and other bigoted states.

He better do his research and make sure he doesn’t move to any of the other 31 states that already have it.

They’re options are not wide open. Many other states have similar laws. I wonder if they know that ....
