Message to Target & Best Buy: Make It Right!



UPDATE ON AUGUST 6:  According to the Associated Press, Target CEO Gregg Steinhafel has written to the company's employees to apologize for a $150,000 donation to MN Forward, an organization that supports an anti-gay Minnesota gubernatorial candidate. Steinhafel said the company would create a process for evaluating potential political contributions in the future.

ORIGINAL POST:  Target is one of the first corporations to take advantage of Citizens United. It donated over $150,000 to an anti-gay, anti-worker and anti-immigration candidate in Minnesota. We need to hold Target accountable—and show other corporations that they will pay a price if they follow Target's lead in hijacking our democracy.
