Voting is a cornerstone characteristic for a functioning
democracy and preserving rule of law. In the United States,
Americans voted in record numbers in the 2020 presidential
election, as turnout rose in every state. For a
well-functioning and sustainable economy, businesses must support
participation amongst its stakeholder groups in all democratic
rights and responsibilities. Therefore, the American Sustainable
Business Network is committed to increasing both registration and
turnout for the upcoming elections.
ASBN believes that voting is an indelible part of doing business
in the United States along the following four reasons:
- Voting strengthens accountability in public policy and
primacy of rule of law
- Voting strengthens legitimacy of American public and private
institutions
- Voting strengthens an inclusive and equitable economy
- Voting strengthens a high road economy for all workers
ASBN encourages all individuals, organizations and
businesses register to vote using the following portals
provided by our partnerships with Time to Vote and Power to Polls. Please take
a moment to register and to share these sites with your
customers, suppliers, and other stakeholders to ensure
everyone has the ability to register.
