Estimated 2023 AGM date for PayPal

**Our Goal**

A “win” would result in PayPal agreeing to revise its Transparency Reports to provide clear explanation on the number and categories of account suspensions and closures that may reasonably be expected to limit freedom of expression or access to information or financial services. These revisions may exclude proprietary or legally privileged information. 

**Why It's Important**

In June 2021, the [American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU)  launched a campaign](https://www.aclu.org/news/lgbtq-rights/paypal-and-venmo-are-shutting-out-sex-workers-putting-lives-and-livelihoods-at-risk) calling on PayPal to provide nondiscriminatory financial services to all users. This is important because PayPal has a history of closing individual and business accounts without giving meaningful notice about the particular Terms of Services provision that was violated. ACLU contends that accountability on human rights, civil liberties, and sound technology policy necessitates that PayPal provide transparency to its users, enabling them to appeal PayPal’s decision to close their account in a timely and efficient manner. 

There have also been reports that PayPal [blocks accounts of sex workers](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-11-14/porn-site-says-paypal-ban-will-hurt-more-than-100-000-performers), which has been shown to disproportionately harm Black, Brown and trans communities. Additionally, PayPal has routinely[ targeted users for speech protected by the First Amendment](https://www.thefire.org/research-learn/fire-statement-free-speech-and-online-payment-processors). The Company has [stalled](https://www.vice.com/en/article/k7qbnz/venmo-paypal-freeze-transfer-limits-bail-funds) efforts to provide bail support to protestors, [froze](https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/paypal-freezes-flin-flon-newspaper-syrian-refugees-1.3977292) the accounts of News Media Canada for a payment to submit an article about Syrian refugees for an award and [terminated service](https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2021/06/paypal-shuts-down-long-time-tor-supporter-no-recourse) to a user for using an open-source software that enables anonymous communication. 

Investors have reason to be concerned because, as the [Electronic Frontier Foundation notes](https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2016/02/kafkaesque-battle-soulseek-and-paypal-and-why-free-speech-defenders-should-be), few companies dominate the market for online payment processing. PayPal wields tremendous power in the industry and controls the speech environment by turning off the financial faucet for users who express disfavored views or discuss controversial topics. Consequently, this leaves individuals who have been blacklisted by PayPal in financially precarious situations since PayPal is one of the largest payment platforms in the world with [325 million active users](https://www.paypal.com/au/webapps/mpp/about). As such, any arguments that those dissatisfied with PayPal’s terms and conditions should seek alternative payment methods are not convincing. 

Further, PayPal’s [2021 Global Impact Report](https://s201.q4cdn.com/346340278/files/doc_downloads/PayPal-2021-Global-Impact-Report.pdf) failed to include information relating to account suspension or actions that may hinder free speech, undermining its commitment to “build a digital economy that powers a more inclusive and resilient world”. Indeed, this emphasises the contradiction between PayPal’s human rights policy, account suspensions and other potential violations of free speech.

By not being transparent with its users, PayPal is missing out on the opportunity to service these users, which is discriminatory, but also hinders PayPal’s ability to acquire a greater market share and generate revenue.

**Our Goal**

Tulipshare, alongside socially responsible investment firm, Azzad Asset Management, request that Apple’s Transparency Reports be revised to provide clear explanations of the number and categories of app removals from the App Store, in response to or in anticipation of government requests, that may reasonably be expected to limit freedom of expression, freedom of information, or access to information. 

Supporters of this shareholder proposal request that Apple include in its Transparency Reports, or explain why it cannot disclose:
  
- The substantive content of government requests, by country, including which government agencies made requests; number of apps removed by category such as “encrypted communications,” VPN, etc.; and external legal or policy basis as well as internal company criteria on which the apps were removed;
 
- Any indicia of the extent of impact on residents of those countries, such as the number of prior downloads of the app and whether existing usage of the app was eliminated;

- Any efforts by the company to mitigate the harmful effect on freedom of expression and access to information posed by the categories of removals.

Although Apple states that its decision to withhold such information stems from privacy concerns, this request – which is supported by transparency advocate [Open MIC](https://www.openmic.org/) – explicitly states that a revision to Apple’s Transparency Reports should exclude proprietary or legally privileged information.

**Why It's Important**

This proposal has been [filed in response](https://azzadasset.com/press-releases/azzad-commends-apple-shareholders-for-transparency-vote/) to news reports that Apple has removed apps from its App Store, sometimes proactively, to avoid harming relationships with authoritarian governments. This includes complying with requests from Russia and China, two regimes that stand accused of war crimes and genocide, respectively. 

“The current tragic situation in Ukraine highlights the potential risks and dangers of corporate complicity with authoritarian governments,” said Michael Connor, Executive Director of Open MIC. “The shareholder vote sends a strong message to Apple’s board of directors: Apple should not–and cannot–censor iPhone apps that are often tools for pro-democracy organizing or freedom of information and communication.”

In December 2020, [154 human rights organizations](https://www.justiceforall.org/save-uighur/154-civil-society-organizations-write-a-joint-letter-to-apple-on-human-rights/) wrote to CEO Tim Cook regarding Apple’s complicity with the Chinese government’s human rights atrocities, noting that “[e]ven though...app removals gravely affect freedom of expression and access to information, Apple’s Transparency Report currently does not disclose such actions beyond a number.”

[The New York Times](https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/17/technology/apple-china-censorship-data.html) reported in May 2021: “... Apple has constructed a bureaucracy that has become a powerful tool in China’s vast censorship operation. It proactively censors its Chinese App Store, relying on software and employees to flag and block apps that Apple managers worry could run afoul of Chinese officials.”  Since 2017, the Times said, roughly 55,000 active apps have disappeared from Apple’s Chinese App Store, including “tools for [organizing pro-democracy](https://www.nytimes.com/2019/10/09/technology/apple-hong-kong-app.html) protests and [skirting internet restrictions](https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/29/technology/china-apple-censorhip.html).” Most of those apps have remained available in other countries, the Times said. 

In April 2022, CEO Tim Cook gave a speech in Washington, D.C. in which he described Apple’s commitment to operating its App Store in a manner that promotes privacy. A week later, Commissioner Brendan Carr of the U.S. Federal Communications Commission wrote a [public letter ](https://www.fcc.gov/document/carr-challenges-apple-privacy-human-rights-china)addressing Cook’s speech, stating that: “at the very same time that [Cook was] speaking in D.C. about [Apple’s] App Store policies promoting privacy and human rights, [Apple] was continuing its well documented campaign in Beijing of aggressively censoring apps at the behest of the Communist Party of China.” Carr went on to state that “[i]f you look at the behavior of the Chinese government, you don’t see any resistance from Apple – no history of standing up for the principles that Apple claims to be so attached to."

Apple’s transparency report for the first half of 2020 [disclosed](https://www.apple.com/legal/transparency/cn.html) that it complied with all 46 requests from the Chinese government to remove 152 apps from the App Store. The report did not explain which apps were removed or for what reason.

- Apple’s transparency reporting takes a “[quantitative approach](https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2020/feb/25/apple-censorship-requests-china-shareholder-groups-proposal)” that offers “little context for the app removal requests from the Chinese government or explanation of the risks that may be involved,” according to Institutional Shareholder Services.

- The [2020 Ranking Digital Rights Corporate Accountability Index](https://rankingdigitalrights.org/index2020/companies/Apple) found “Apple lacked transparency about its process for removing apps from the App Store for violations to iOS rules.”

Shareholders are deeply concerned about a material failure in Apple’s transparency reporting that seemingly highlights a contradiction between Apple’s human rights policy and its actions regarding China and its occupied territories, which represent almost a third of Apple’s customer base. This poses significant legal, reputational, and financial risk to Apple and its shareholders.

**The Next AGM**

Last year this proposal calling for a revision to Apple's Transparency Reports received [3,042,933,417](https://d18rn0p25nwr6d.cloudfront.net/CIK-0000320193/1e8cf761-1736-43bb-81b0-4e8fe94bd0c8.pdf) votes from shareholders, which translates to 31.73% voter support, a strong showing for a proposal filed for the first time. With the help of activist investors like you, we can continue to push for Apple to make this positive change in favour of human rights and freedom of expression.

Apple's 2023 annual general meeting (AGM) is set to be held virtually on March 10, 2023 at 9.00 A.M Pacific Time (5.00 P.M. GMT). You can read the company's [2023 proxy statement](https://d18rn0p25nwr6d.cloudfront.net/CIK-0000320193/ebbd88bb-cc8f-4e1e-8d5e-a52f8f780b94.pdf) to see what proposals eligible shareholders will be able to vote on.

Tulipshare has co-invested alongside our users in support of this campaign. Tulipshare currently owns 132 Microsoft shares. Please see below to learn more about supporting our campaign.

**Our Goal**

Tulipshare and the Center for Political Accountability (“CPA”) request that Microsoft adopt a policy requiring that any trade association, social welfare organisation, or organisation organised and operated primarily to engage in political activities that seeks financial support from Microsoft agree to report to Microsoft, at least annually, the organisation’s expenditures for political activities, including the amount spent and the recipient, and that each such report be posted on Microsoft’s website.

For purposes of this proposal, “political activities” are (i) influencing or attempting to influence the selection, nomination, election, or appointment of any individual to a public office; or (ii) supporting a party, committee, association, fund, or other organisation organised and operated primarily for the purpose of directly or indirectly accepting contributions or making expenditures to engage in the activities described in (i).

As Microsoft shareholders we support transparency and accountability in corporate electoral spending, including the indirect political spending that is the subject of this proposal.  Misaligned or non-transparent funding creates reputational risk that can harm shareholder value. It can also place a company in legal jeopardy. Unless a company knows which candidates and political causes its funds ultimately support, it cannot assure shareholders, employees, or other stakeholders that its spending aligns with core values, business objectives, and policy positions.  Without the information requested by this resolution, none of the board, senior management, or shareowners can assess the risks associated with political spending. 

The risks are especially serious when giving to trade associations, Super PACs, 527 committees, and “social welfare” organisations – groups that routinely pass money to or spend on behalf of candidates and political causes that a company might not otherwise wish to support.  The Conference Board’s 2021 [“Under a Microscope” report](https://www.conference-board.org/publications/Under-a-Microscope-ES) details these risks, discusses how to effectively manage them, and recommends the process suggested in this proposal.


**Why it's Important**

At its core, lobbying is a way for citizens and corporations to make their voices heard by the government when it passes laws and legislations that affect them. However, a company’s spending on corporate political activity is difficult, if not impossible, to track without voluntary disclosures from the company. Often, a company’s lobbying efforts are aimed in direct contrast to their stated mission and values.

One such example is Microsoft’s stance on the overturning of Roe v. Wade. After the ruling, which states that the constitution generally protects the right to choose an abortion, was struck down, Microsoft came out in support of its workers by saying it will cover [employee travel expenses](https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/jun/25/companies-abortion-access-employees-disney-levi-strauss-microsoft-jp-morgan) for abortions. However, despite this apparent stance in support of abortion rights, the company has a decades-long history of [funding conservative](https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1999/05/07/microsofts-window-of-influence/424f0b28-e86c-42cf-a4c8-cb2db173715d/) rightwing politics. This is a key illustration of how companies, like Microsoft, have the power to influence policies that extend far beyond just their own business  interests.

Corporations usually provide financial support to certain candidates, political action committees (PACs), ballot measures, or other similar organisations to aid them in their long-term goals or to push public policies that align with their business strategy. However these expenditures, aimed to promote a company’s financial returns, can end up at odds with the company’s stated values. In this example, Microsoft has taken no responsibility for policies their funding has ended up supporting. This not only flies against company values, it can also stand to alienate their customer base and damage Microsoft’s  brand reputation hurting the [long-term value](https://hbr.org/2022/07/how-greenwashing-affects-the-bottom-line) for shareholders.

When consumers make their spending decision, they are increasingly looking at the ESG values of their purchases. In particular, [over 40%](https://www.mckinsey.com/business-functions/growth-marketing-and-sales/our-insights/how-us-consumers-are-feeling-shopping-and-spending-and-what-it-means-for-companies) of consumers consider authenticity very important when making purchase decisions. Thus, putting people before profits and being transparent in business operations makes a key difference for consumers. With the evolution of social media, it is increasingly possible for activists to track down Microsoft’s spending. Irresponsible lobbying can hence negatively impact the company in the long term.

With this proposed model code, however, Microsoft can continue to make its voice heard on legal matters without alienating its stakeholders. Furthermore, by agreeing to be more transparent regarding lobbying practices and considering the potential side effects, the company stays true to its own values as well.

Microsoft has spent [$10.2 million](https://www.politico.com/newsletters/morning-tech/2022/01/24/tech-spent-big-on-lobbying-last-year-00001144) on lobbying the federal government in 2021 , an 8% increase from the previous year. Customers and shareholders, who at the base level provide this funding, have a right to know that this is being done properly and not against values Microsoft markets itself to follow.

**Next AGM**

We won’t know the exact date of Microsoft’s next AGM until they release their 2022 proxy statement, but based on last year’s dates we expect the 2022 AGM to be held sometime around 30th November 2022.

Unfortunately we will not be eligible to submit a proposal for the 2022 AGM, but with the launch of this campaign we will begin immediate discussions with Microsoft’s Investor Relations team with the view of submitting a proposal in time for the 2023 proposal if we cannot come to a resolution prior to then.


Microsoft

In response to the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe vs. Wade, Microsoft stated it will provide travel expense reimbursement for employees seeking abortions and gender-affirming care anywhere in the country. However, it has a history of supporting conservative right-wing politics whereby some of the money their funding for political action committees ends up funding anti-abortion movements.

**Important Disclosure**: Tulipshare has co-invested alongside our users in support of this campaign. Tulipshare currently owns 250 Procter & Gamble shares. Please see below to learn more about supporting our campaign.

**Our Goal**

In 2020 a majority of shareholders backed a proposal for P&G to address their contributions to deforestation. But since then there has been no meaningful action, which suggests the board isn’t listening to shareholders. Our goal is simple: to install a board member who can provide action where the current board cannot. We believe an independent chair with experience in achieving sustainability goals will add value and balance to the board (and company) and ensure deforestation concerns are being addressed.

**Why It's Important**

Procter & Gamble is one of the world’s [top](https://www.consultancy.uk/news/26874/the-worlds-40-largest-fast-moving-consumer-goods-companies) fast moving consumer goods (products that move quickly and at a low cost) companies and they currently target primary forests, like the [Canadian boreal](https://www.nrdc.org/stories/why-canadas-boreal-forest-important), to harvest palm oil for many of their products. So much so that The National Resources Defense Council (NRDC) [called out](https://www.nrdc.org/stop-procter-gamble-flushing-away-our-forests) P&G for “flushing away our forests.” Similarly, Rainforest Action Network [reports](https://www.ran.org/procter-and-gamble/) that P&G is complicit in destroying rainforests and the livelihoods of Indigenous communities by expanding palm oil plantations.

In response to this, in 2020 a shareholder proposal requested that Procter & Gamble evaluate how it can eliminate deforestation and primary forest degradation from its supply chains. A whopping [67%](https://d18rn0p25nwr6d.cloudfront.net/CIK-0000080424/513b850b-15e6-45b9-b55b-e685be11e4fa.pdf) majority of the votes cast at P&G’s 2020 AGM were in favour of the proposal - the highest **ever** vote for a deforestation proposal, receiving twice as many shareholder votes as any previous resolution filed on the issue, [per](https://www.greencentury.com/pg-shareholders-resoundingly-support-deforestation-proposal/) Green Century Funds. **However, Procter & Gamble has failed to meaningfully investigate its role in driving deforestation and primary forest degradation.**

**As shareholders, we are part owners of the company, and so our concerns should be addressed.**  If the current board is not prepared to facilitate shareholder trust, then we need to look at the construct and determine where improvements can be made.

The Chairman is responsible for leading the Board and focusing it on strategic matters, overseeing the Group's business and setting high governance standards. Today that person is Jon Moeller who also happens to be the President and Chief Executive Officer at P&G. Prior to his current roles at P&G, Moeller spent eight years on the board of Monsanto – the former corporation [responsible](https://www.europeanpressprize.com/article/monsanto-papers/) for producing environmentally harmful and potentially carcinogenic products – during which, Monsanto [influenced and undermined](https://www.baumhedlundlaw.com/toxic-tort-law/monsanto-roundup-lawsuit/monsanto-papers/) scientific research to protect the company’s image and products, even at the expense of human health.

Moeller’s dual role as CEO and board chair amplifies his backsliding approach to environmental sustainability and innovation. Moreover, Moeller [repeatedly](https://www.nrdc.org/sites/default/files/pg-investor-brief-20201006.pdf) refuses invitations to meet with NGOs and P&G family members to discuss environmental supply chain concerns, and instead opts to placate investors rather than meaningfully change corporate practices. In response, human rights activists and descendants from both of Procter & Gamble’s founding families [protested](https://www.cincinnati.com/picture-gallery/news/2022/10/11/photos-p-g-descendants-protest-cincinnati-headquarters/10467981002/) the company’s failure to address unsustainable sourcing of materials from climate-critical forests in the Canadian boreal and Southeast Asia outside P&G’s headquarters during the 2022 AGM.

Overall, Procter & Gamble has failed to meaningfully address shareholders’ concerns, instead responding with greenwashing, misleading talking points, and cosmetic measures. Shareholders have lost confidence in the board’s ability to deliver on deforestation targets, and the company’s inaction will almost certainly lead to missed opportunities for capitalizing on marketplace shifts toward more sustainable products, in addition to furthering risks for the company.

Hence the need for an **independent board chair** to ensure corrective measures will be undertaken when P&G fails to meet its mandate or that of shareholders, and proactively adhere to changes in consumer and marketplace expectations.

**Next AGM**

We won’t know the exact date of P&G’s next AGM until the company releases its 2023 proxy statement, but based on this year’s dates we expect the 2023 AGM to be held sometime around 11th October 2023.

**AGM Record Date**

The record date pertains to the date by which investors must hold their shares in a company in order to participate in the company’s AGM.

**Our Goal**

Our goal is to support *As You Sow’s* [proposal](https://www.asyousow.org/resolutions/2023/01/09-carmax-responsible-carbon-offsetting) to CarMax Inc. A “win” would result in CarMax agreeing to publish a report disclosing if and how carbon offsets are used to achieve company emissions reduction goals, describing all criteria used for offset purchases, and disclosing the type and quality of offsets purchased.

**Why It's Important**

As Net Zero emissions and carbon neutrality [commitments](https://news.un.org/en/story/2022/11/1130317) have increased globally, the [need for accurate reporting](https://www.forbes.com/sites/kensilverstein/2023/01/25/the-carbon-credit-market-confuses-the-corporate-world/?sh=5430f2545362) on the use and quality of voluntary carbon credits has become paramount.

The voluntary carbon market remains a [“wild west,”](https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/carbon-credit-fraud-assumptions-are-challenged-in-new-study-1.1841036) with no globally accepted standards yet in place for ensuring effective emissions offsets, leading to the [risk](https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/jan/18/revealed-forest-carbon-offsets-biggest-provider-worthless-verra-aoe) that companies can take credit for offsets not producing real-world emissions reductions.

Expert groups, including the [Climate Action 100+ initiative](https://www.climateaction100.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Climate-Action-100-Benchmark-Indicators-FINAL-3.12.pdf), the [United Nations](https://www.un.org/en/chronicle/article/beyond-carbon-markets), and the [Science Based Targets](https://sciencebasedtargets.org/blog/science-based-net-zero-targets-less-net-more-zero) initiative, agree that best practices for carbon offsetting include limiting use of offsets to achieve decarbonisation targets, especially in sectors where viable low-carbon or zero-carbon technologies exist. Experts [urge](https://sciencebasedtargets.org/resources/files/Beyond-Value-Chain-Mitigation-FAQ.pdf) the prioritisation of operational and value chain decarbonization, and underscore that carbon credits are not substitutes for such emission reductions. Companies can avoid the perception of greenwashing by prioritising value chain decarbonization and being transparent about any use of offsets.

Companies that use offsets should provide clarity on how they are being used, for example, whether they are used to mitigate current emissions for purposes of carbon neutrality goals or to meet company greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets. Companies should also disclose the types of offsets purchased, provide information on the quality of offsets, and provide verification as to additionality, permanence, and other key quality metrics. By [providing clarity](https://cdn.cdp.net/cdp-production/cms/guidance_docs/pdfs/000/003/101/original/CDP_technical_note_-_Climate_transition_plans.pdf?1643994309) on offset use and quality, companies can ensure investors they are responding appropriately to the growing climate challenge and are avoiding greenwashing and associated reputational risks.

CarMax has [committed](https://socialresponsibility.carmax.com/pdf-viewer-3/web/viewer.html#page=1) to achieve a 50% reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 2025, yet its Scope 1 emissions have increased by 55% from its 2018 baseline. CarMax [states](https://s27.q4cdn.com/743947716/files/doc_financials/2021/sr/CarMax-Strategy-and-Responsibility-Overview.pdf) it will purchase “verified and socially beneficial offsets” but does not disclose key details of its offsetting strategy, including the degree to which it relies on offsets to achieve its climate goals. Aligning corporate offsetting policies with best practices in emissions reductions will address investor climate concerns, avoid the perception of greenwashing, and ensure that CarMax is prepared to excel in a decarbonising economy and maximise opportunities to advance technology and resilience.

Proponents recommend, at Board discretion, that the requested report should:

- Clarify if and how carbon offsets are, or are planned to be, used to meet the Company’s 2025 emissions reduction and Net Zero by 2050 goals;

- Disclose Company criteria for procuring [high-quality offsets](https://icvcm.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/ICVCM-Public-Consultation-FINAL-Part-4.pdf), including, for instance, additionality, permanence, leakage, reversibility, and environmental justice risks; and

- Disclose the project name, location, type, supplier, third-party verifier and number of credits purchased, originated, and retired on an annual basis.

**Our Goal**

Our goal is to support *As You Sow’s* [proposal](https://www.asyousow.org/resolutions/2022/12/29-mastercard-disclosure-incongruent-lobbying-activity) to Mastercard. A “win” would result in Mastercard agreeing to publish a report analysing the misalignment of its political and electioneering expenditures during the previous year against its publicly stated values and policies, explaining instances of incongruent expenditures and stating whether the Company plans to make changes in its contributions.

**Why It's Important**

When a company’s political expenditures don’t align with its publicly-stated values, it exposes the company - and therefore investors - to financial and reputational risks, making it essential for Mastercard to disclose its incongruent expenditures and make necessary changes. 

Mastercard states that “[it is committed to doing well by doing good](https://www.mastercard.com/news/perspectives/2022/esg-goals-and-employee-compensation/),” a vision that, allegedly, inspires “[everything](https://www.mastercard.com/global/en/vision/corp-responsibility.html)” the Company does. This includes striving to engage in the political process and policy arena “[in the most responsible and ethical way](https://investor.mastercard.com/corporate-governance/policies-and-reports/default.aspx)”. 

Despite the above mentioned statements, Mastercard’s political expenditures appear to not align with its public statements on company values, views and operational practices. This is important because by not aligning its political expenditure with company values, Mastercard and its shareholders are likely to face financial and reputational risks as well as a reduction in its market share as consumers move to organisations who put their money where their mouth is.

For example, Mastercard trumpets its commitment to “mobilising against climate change” including adopting a [Net Zero by 2040 goal](https://www.asyousow.org/resolutions/2022/12/29-mastercard-disclosure-incongruent-lobbying-activity#_ftn4). In fact, the Company has particularly proclaimed its [efforts to address](https://normative.io/insight/mastercard/) its Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions. However, Mastercard is a [member](https://www.businessroundtable.org/about-us/members) of organisations like the Business Roundtable that opposes meaningful climate action. The Business Roundtable “[spent millions](https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/aug/19/top-us-business-lobby-group-climate-action-business-roundtable)” fighting climate legislation, and, in particular, has opposed efforts to require companies to disclose their Scope 3 emissions. 

Similarly, although Mastercard promotes [internal and external](https://www.mastercard.com/news/perspectives/2022/esg-goals-and-employee-compensation/) [ESG](https://www.mastercardservices.com/en/solutions/environmental-social-and-governance) practices, it continues to sponsor the State Financial Officers Foundation (SFOF), an organisation that promotes government policies [punishing](https://www.responsible-investor.com/kkr-no-longer-listed-on-sponsorship-page-of-us-anti-esg-foundation/) companies that take ESG factors into consideration in their investment decision making. While Mastercard is working on [eliminating](https://www.marketwatch.com/story/mastercard-will-let-you-track-the-climate-impact-of-your-spending-habits-11618229211) its greenhouse gas emissions, SFOF promotes legislation that prohibits states from contracting with companies whose greenhouse gas reduction policies negatively [affect fossil fuel companies](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/05/climate/republican-treasurers-climate-change.html). This means that Mastercard sponsors SFOF despite the fact that policies promoted by SFOF directly harm Mastercard’s business. Other organisations, such as Federated Hermes, which previously supported SFOF prior to its anti-ESG work, [withdrew their membership](https://www.netzeroinvestor.net/news-and-views/federated-hermes-to-end-sponsorship-of-us-anti-esg-treasurers-group) with the organisation. 

Mastercard and its shareholders would benefit from the Company weighing the benefits of funding politically-oriented organisations whose policies may negatively impact its business, are likely to increase climate risk, and are not aligned with its own climate-related policies. 

**Next AGM**

We won’t know Mastercard’s next AGM until the company releases its 2023 Proxy Statement, but based on 2022 dates we expect the 2023 AGM to be held sometime around 21st June 2023.

**AGM Record Date**

The record date pertains to the date by which investors must hold their shares in a company in order to participate in the company’s AGM.

Withdrawal agreement reached with Salesforce


**Our Goal**

Tulipshare has submitted a proposal to Salesforce requesting a publicly disclosed independent third-party racial equity audit of Salesforce's impact on civil rights, equity, diversity and inclusion; the audit should be conducted with input from civil rights organizations, employees, and communities in which Salesforce operates. This proposal will be on the ballot at Salesforce’s upcoming Annual General Meeting. By investing in our campaign and casting your vote, you’re adding your voice to a call-to-action seeking to hold Salesforce accountable and improve the company’s representation and treatment of minority groups.

**Why it’s important**

Recent events, including the murder of George Floyd and the disproportionate impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic have galvanized the movement for racial justice and equity. As [the number one customer relationship manager (CRM)](https://www.salesforce.com/campaign/worlds-number-one-CRM/) in the world, it is important that Salesforce also leads in its diversity, equity and inclusion practices. Increased diversity in the workplace is linked to increased [productivity, innovation and performance](https://www.forbes.com/sites/forbestechcouncil/2021/11/12/how-diversity-can-help-with-business-growth/?sh=12240aa252ad). Although Salesforce hired its first Chief Equality Officer in 2016 and began releasing quarterly equality reports, the company’s diversity numbers [barely improved](https://www.businessinsider.com/salesforce-push-to-improve-equality-yielded-slow-results-tony-prophet-2020-11). The percentage of Hispanic and Black employees at Salesforce merely inched up from 4% Hispanic and 2% Black in [2015](https://www.salesforce.com/content/dam/web/en_us/www/assets/pdf/datasheets/sustainability-report-fy1516.pdf) to 5.1% Hispanic and 4.3% Black in [2021](https://www.salesforce.com/news/stories/quarterly-equality-update-inclusive-employee-experience/).

Recent resignations from [two Black women](https://www.fastcompany.com/90608433/vivianne-castillo-leaves-salesforce-citing-rampant-microaggressions-and-gaslighting) in prominent positions at Salesforce indicate a lack of progress regarding the company’s diversity and racial equity.

The first woman from Salesforce to publicly resign, a senior manager of research in business technology, asserted that there is a “[big gap from how Salesforce portrays itself and the lived experience](https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:6763264995485728768/?src=aff-lilpar&veh=aff_src.aff-lilpar_c.partners_pkw.10078_plc.Skimbit%20Ltd._pcrid.449670_learning&trk=aff_src.aff-lilpar_c.partners_pkw.10078_plc.Skimbit%20Ltd._pcrid.449670_learning&clickid=TfZ1VE04PxyIT2wUaUwrVVf2UkG2ff1V2UURRU0&mcid=6851962469594763264&irgwc=1)” of working for the company. She claimed she was “manipulated, bullied [and] neglected” while working within Salesforce’s “toxic environment”. Later that month, a manager of design research and innovation resigned, alleging that Salesforce lacks accountability regarding diversity, equity and inclusion and the company’s “[disingenuous marketing around equality](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/vccastillo_vivianne-castilloresignation-letter21521-activity-6770470033694035968-sWJR/?src=aff-lilpar&veh=aff_src.aff-lilpar_c.partners_pkw.10078_plc.Skimbit%20Ltd._pcrid.449670_learning&trk=aff_src.aff-lilpar_c.partners_pkw.10078_plc.Skimbit%20Ltd._pcrid.449670_learning&clickid=TfZ1VE04PxyIT2wUaUwrVVf2UkG2ff1h2UURRU0&mcid=6851962469594763264&irgwc=1)” does not align with internal practices. She further stated that Salesforce lacks a proactive action plan to prevent underrepresented minorities from suffering “unchecked harm and trauma”. Salesforce consistently fails to implement a proactive action plan to prevent harm to its Black, Indigenous, People of Color (“BIPOC”), and instead simply refers employees who have suffered harm to “Warmline,” its employee advocacy program “[to have confidential conversations](https://www.salesforce.com/news/stories/our-initial-quarterly-equality-update/).”

Even if Salesforce achieves its [purported goal](https://www.salesforce.com/company/equality/) of having 50% of its U.S. workforce consisting of underrepresented groups by 2023, certain groups would likely remain underrepresented. Salesforce bundles “Women, Black, Latinx, Indigenous, Multiracial, LGBTQ+ employees, People with Disabilities, and Veterans” together to form the company’s definition of “[underrepresented groups](https://www.salesforce.com/company/equality/)”. Combining all of those employees’ unique identities into one intersectional category allows Salesforce to seemingly reach its goal while still leaving particular groups underrepresented. On top of that, Salesforce’s goal of [“doubling” its “representation of Black leaders”](https://www.salesforce.com/news/stories/quarterly-equality-update-inclusive-employee-experience/) by 2023 would be a misleading achievement considering that only 1.5% of the company’s total leadership roles were comprised of [Black employees ](https://www.businessinsider.com/tech-executives-racism-diversity-black-lives-matter-protests-2020-6#salesforce-14)in 2020. 

You can find Salesforce’s most recent Equal Employment Opportunity Report [here](https://www.salesforce.com/content/dam/web/en_us/www/documents/reports/sfdc-certified-eeo-1-2021-report.pdf), which shows the vast disparity in representation amongst its employees.

Following controversies, Facebook and Starbucks conducted civil rights and equity audits that assisted each company to identify, prioritize, and implement improvements. These efforts provide an emerging model for such audits, typically conducted by a third party, in collaboration with experts in civil rights, and input from an array of stakeholders.

Tulipshare’s approach to improving diversity and inclusion within Salesforce is the most productive first step that we can take as activist investors – to request an independent third-party audit with input from civil rights organizations and communities wherein Salesforce operates. This type of report will provide greater transparency into diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) metrics at Salesforce and how they can be improved.

**2023 AGM**
Salesforce's next AGM is on June 8, 2023 at 11am Pacific Time (7pm GMT). Check out Salesforce's [2023 proxy statement](https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/1108524/000119312523122123/d406753ddef14a.htm).

In 2022 our proposal for the company to conduct a racial equity audit received a 33.8% backing - not bad for our first time on the scene! It also means we gained enough support to file again next year, which we intend to do.

In 2023, we withdrew our proposal, following a successful withdrawal agreement singed by Tulipshare and Salesforce. You can learn more about the withdrawal agreement from the campaign updates below.

Despite high-profile diversity marketing, Salesforce has consistently failed to improve its U.S. workforce diversity numbers, and underrepresented employees in prominent positions have left the company due to “rampant microaggressions and gaslighting”.  We want Salesforce to commission an independent racial equity audit analysing Salesforce’s impact on civil rights, equity, diversity and inclusion.

**Our Goal**

Our goal is to support As You Sow’s [proposal](https://www.asyousow.org/resolutions/2022/12/7-chevron-petrochemical-risk-single-use-plastic#_ftn4) to Chevron by launching a campaign that allows individuals to invest in a safer and more just future where the companies aren’t planning for a future built on the single-use plastic rubbish.
 
A “win” would result in Chevron agreeing to issue an audited report addressing whether and how a significant reduction in virgin plastic demand, as set forth in Breaking the Plastic Wave’s System Change Scenario to reduce ocean plastic pollution, would affect the Company’s financial position and assumptions underlying its financial statements. The report should be at reasonable cost and omit proprietary information.  

**Why It's Important**

Plastic pollution is an environmental crisis that is truly global in scope leaving no area untouched, and there is no way to spin it as anything other than a crisis. Plastic is literally everywhere. In the products we buy, the food we purchase, the streets we walk, and the land and water around us. You have already heard the bone chilling statistic that there might be more plastic than fish in the ocean by 2050 without a serious shift in the way that we use single-use plastic. It is part of our collective global culture and consumerist patterns that we clearly need to purge. But the companies that make and make bank from single use plastic (SUP) are burying their heads in a vat of nurdles (the little pellets that make SUPs), and are banking on a future where we not only keep using SUPs, but a future where SUPs are used even more. [Chevron is one of these companies](https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/chevron-phillips-qatarenergy-build-85-bln-polymers-facility-2022-11-16/).
 
Plastics have a lifecycle social cost at least [ten times higher](https://wwfint.awsassets.panda.org/downloads/wwf_pctsee_report_english.pdf) than its market price, actively threatens the world’s oceans, wildlife, and public health. SUPs make up the largest component of the [11 million metric tons](https://www.minderoo.org/plastic-waste-makers-index/findings/executive-summary/) of plastic ending up in waterways annually. Without drastic action, this amount could [triple](https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/article/plastic-trash-in-seas-will-nearly-triple-by-2040-if-nothing-done) by 2040. One of the most robust pathways is presented in the widely respected Breaking the Plastic Wave [report](https://www.pewtrusts.org/-/media/assets/2020/07/breakingtheplasticwave_report.pdf), which finds that plastic leakage into the ocean can be reduced 80 percent under its System Change Scenario (SCS), which includes a significant absolute reduction of virgin SUPs
 
In response to the plastic pollution crisis, countries and major packaging brands are beginning to drive reductions in virgin plastic use. [New laws](https://www.packworld.com/news/sustainability/article/22419036/four-states-enact-packaging-epr-laws) focused on reduction and taxing corporations for single-use packaging have already been passed in Maine, Oregon, Colorado, and California. The European Union has also [banned](https://environment.ec.europa.eu/topics/plastics/single-use-plastics_en) 10 single-use plastic products commonly found in ocean cleanups and imposed a tax on non-recycled plastic packaging waste.
 
And of utmost importance to any good company, consumers show strong preference for plastic action. [Up to 88%](https://www.forbes.com/sites/blakemorgan/2021/04/19/customers-hate-plastic-packaging-so-why-do-companies-keep-using-it/) in the U.S. and the U.K, want companies to help them lower how much plastic they use through the products they buy. You probably already take steps in your life to reduce how much SUP is in your life, whether that be with reusable bags, no straws, reusable cups, or a variety of other reusable tools. And that is great! But even the Individual commitment of millions doesn’t outweigh that harm done by companies like Chevron who profit from and plan to keep manufacturing single use plastics. 
 
BP has recognized the potential disruption that global SUP reductions could have on the oil industry in its [2019 Outlook](https://www.bp.com/content/dam/bp/business-sites/en/global/corporate/pdfs/energy-economics/energy-outlook/bp-energy-outlook-2019.pdf#page=18), finding that a global SUP ban by 2040 would reduce oil demand growth by 60%. Chevron, an oil and gas company, obviously sees the writing on the wall as society shifts away from SUPs, but that doesn’t seem to be impacting its long-term plans. Chevron Phillips Chemical Company (“CPChem”), jointly owned by Chevron and Phillips 66, produced [1.8 million metric tons of SUP bound polymers in 2019](https://www.minderoo.org/plastic-waste-makers-index/data/flows/#/sankey/global/10), an estimated 42 percent of total production. Its core business model of producing virgin plastics from fossil fuels is rapidly expanding. As a partial owner of CPChem, Chevron faces growing risk from CPChem’s continued investment in virgin plastic production infrastructure.
 
Shareholders want the change from Chevron that acknowledges the risks that the shift away from SUPs poses to the company, and the even graver risk to the planet is companies like Chevron choose not to change for the sake of the planet and people.


**Next AGM**

We won’t know Chevron’s next AGM until the company releases its 2023 Proxy Statement, but based on 2022 dates we expect the 2023 AGM to be held sometime around 25th May 2023.
