Tampa Bay Coalition
 Action Alert ~ May 31, 2001
 
Hello My Friends
 
Exxon Prevails, Re-instatement of Mobil's Pre-Merger Policy & Benefits Proposal Fails.
Exxon Mobil Corp. Shareholder's Proposal to re-instate Mobil's Domestic Partners Benefits and Policy Banning Discrimination Based on Sexual Orientation was voted down. Receiving only 13% of shareholders votes in favor of the proposal.  The proposal did receive sufficient votes to allow for re-submission next year. But, why do nothing till next years vote.
 
Call to Action~Boycott ExxonMobil Corp.
Tampa Bay Coalition is asking for a Boycott of all products and services of ExxonMobil Corp. be instituted. Come the next annual shareholders meeting and vote. Perhaps, ExxonMobil Corp. will see that Equality in the Work Place is of the utmost importance to all Americans. Companies without Policies of Equality for all their employees, will not be supported with our hard earned dollars.
 
Your Efforts Convinced Home Depot.
With your recent efforts in contacting Home Depot and by their reversing their stance against adding sexual orientation to their equal opportunity employment policy. Yours and the scores and scores of others voices were heard loud and clear. Home Depot realized what Exxon Mobil Corp. seems to be ignoring, this is not just a Gay Issue. It is an issue that all Americans are concerned with. 
 
It's Time to Convince Exxon Mobil Corp.
Exxon Mobil Corp. has continued to dismiss and ignore the pleas of shareholders, 24 members of Congress, pro-rights in employment groups, gay rights organizations and the gay communities across the country. By Boycotting Exxon Mobil Corp. and supporting only those companies with policies of equality for all employees in the workplace.  Our message will be heard by all companies who have yet to implement equal employment opportunity policy. Exxon Mobil Corp will learn their financial penances for stripping Mobil's pre-merger policy barring discrimination based on ones sexual orientation and domestic partners benefits. Their refusal to answer the pleas for Mobil's pre-merger benefits and policy to be re-instated.
