Who Funds Abortion
Who Funds Abortion - Corporations
One of the resources to view corporate funding or sponsorship of certain issues is 2ndvote.com. Besides weekly updates of evaluations, they have a large database of prior results. Each corporation is measured on:
Second Amendment
Environment
Marriage
Life
Education
Immigration
Religious Liberty
Through their research they identify where a corporation contributed funds directly or indirectly in each category. The grading is:
1 - Indicates direct support to a liberal organization; example Johnson & Johnson
2 - Indicates indirect support to a liberal organization; example United Way
3 - Indicates neutrality or no information found on issue
4 - Indicates indirect support to a conservative organization
5 - Indicates direct support to a liberal organization
Then an overall score is calculated. They also propose alternatives for an organization.
With Walmart, as an example, they score as follows:
Second Amendment 1
Environment 1
Marriage 1
Life 2 More Con Funds than Pro Funds
Education 2 More Con Funds than Pro Funds
Immigration 1
Religious Liberty 2 More Con Funds than Pro Funds
Overall 1.4
They offer Meijer as an alternative:
Second Amendment 2 More Con Funds than Pro Funds
Environment 1
Marriage 3 Balance of Pro and Con Funds
Life 3 Balance of Pro and Con Funds
Education - No information found on issue
Immigration - No information found on issue
Religious Liberty - No information found on issue
Overall 2.6
For each corporation, you can check “Send an Email” to voice your opinion. Also, you can find scores for each grading. For example, you can select “Life” and get a sorted summary of all corporations with their life score. 2ndVote also provides a store shopping guide.

In 2019, Planned Parenthood performed 39 abortions per hour. Corporations and other groups provided funds for the killing.
We now know some of the corporations that our are complicit in the slaughter. Now what? Maybe send an email and support only those that support Life.
