Equality in the workplace is one of the most important economic issues of our time.
Don’t Ban Equality is a coalition of 1,000+ businesses, large to small, located in all 50 states, publicly traded and private, U.S. based and globally headquartered, making the case that abortion access is a workforce and economic issue.
Worker Sentiment
By a 2:1 margin, employed adults prefer to live in a state where abortion is legal and accessible, and two-thirds of college educated workers will not take or apply for jobs in restrictive states.
Public Support
Consumer Sentiment
Broadly, 86% of consumers say it is important that brands take a stand on reproductive health in particular. Within that, 91% of Gen Z and 86% of Millennial consumers say it is important.
Economic Impact
The economic losses from existing abortion restrictions, including labor force impact and earnings, cost state economies an est. $172 billion annually (up from $146 billion) and eliminating bans would increase earnings for women by billions.
Access Matters
Access to reproductive healthcare is a core business issue because it impacts operations, benefits, culture, workforce health and safety, and competitiveness for talent – and it is backed by bipartisan public opinion.
When everyone is empowered to succeed, our companies, communities and economy are better for it.
These businesses stand with Don’t Ban Equality
These are just some of the businesses that understand that restricting reproductive healthcare negatively affects business efforts to promote workplace equity, build diverse and inclusive workforces; recruit top talent across states, and ensure the well-being of workers, communities, and the economy.
