Activists in Georgia are demanding a new boycott of Home Depot, not over something the company said or did, but precisely because they believe the home improvement retail store did not disavow Georgia new election law with strong enough language.
Critics of Georgia’s voting law — which has been the subject of rampant misinformation — claim the law makes voting more difficult. Supporters of the law, however, say the law was necessary to improve election integrity and have noted that many other states have enacted similar provisions.
With building pressure from activists, and such claims from President Joe Biden that the law is “Jim Crow in the 21st century,” many major corporations spoke out against the law, and Major League Baseball even moved its All-Star game from Georgia over growing pressure to address the law.
The Coca-Cola Company and Delta Air Lines — two companies whose headquarters are located in Atlanta — denounced the bill.
Home Depot also addressed the law, saying, “We believe that all elections should be accessible, fair and secure and support broad voter participation. We’ll continue to work to ensure our associates, both in Georgia and across the country, have the information and resources to vote.”
According to the New York Times, a coalition of black faith leaders are demanding a boycott of Home Depot because they believe the company “abdicated its responsibility as a good corporate citizen by not pushing back on the state’s new voting law.”

Good man that run that place.
Activists don’t shop at places like Home Depot and the majority of people who do are people that support voter ID and honest elections
Activists don’t shop, they loot and steal.
Good company, the owner is always put on the spot and pulls through.
I don’t know. Why don’t you become Mike’s Secretary so you can keep an eye on him.
