What is it that motivates individuals and organizations to promote the killing of the unborn? Well, ‘Progressive Insurance has been a long-time corporate funder of the 
Planned Parenthood abortion business, appearing on lists of corporate sponsors for years. At a shareholders’ meeting today, the company’s CEO avoided questions from a pro-life organization worried that it is expanding its abortion support further.
As LifeNews.com has reported, Progressive Insurance has been on boycott lists of companies that support Planned Parenthood as early as 2016 and as late as earlier this year. But abortion activists are working to get the nation’s largest corporations more firmly in support of abortion and pro-abortion groups, and the organization As You Sow has been lobbying aggressively to get more companies to sign up for additional abortion advocacy.
The Free Enterprise Project, a conservative group, called out the Progressive Corporation today for its collaboration with As You Sow and questioned its abortion advocacy, but the response was less than forthcoming.
At today’s annual meeting of Progressive shareholders, Justin Danhof, General Counsel and FEP Director at the National Center for Public Policy Research, asked Progressive CEO Tricia Griffith:
For this annual meeting, As You Sow filed a shareholder resolution seeking the company’s support for anti-life abortion policies. As You Sow subsequently withdrew its proposal noting it had reached an agreement with the company. As the Wall Street Journal has reported most proposals are withdrawn after the company accedes to some of the shareholders demands.
Abortion is one of the most divisive issues in America. Why did you choose to engage in such an acrimonious culture battle, and what concessions did you make to As You Sow to get them to pull their resolution?
In response, Griffith largely avoided the question and instead appeared to read a canned response that largely focused on its employee health care programs. https://www.lifenews.com/2020/05/08/progressive-insurance-funds-planned-parenthood-abortion-biz-avoids-questions-at-shareholders-meeting/
It is getting harder and harder to find companies that are not ‘progressive’ leftist liberals!
