The National Legal and Policy Center, a right-wing organisation that “promotes ethics in public life,” has written to Coca-Cola Chairman and CEO James Quincey, asking that he “immediately seek the resignation” of besieged Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick from the company’s board of directors, on which Kotick also serves.

Pointing out that Coke has been quick to act publicly in other “controversial public policy issues,” like speaking out against Georgia’s bullshit Election Integrity Act, the director of the NLPC’s Corporate Integrity Project, Paul Chesser, says it’s time for action in this instance as well. “Sexual harassment in the workplace is unacceptable,” Chesser writes. “There exists no constituency in favor of sexual harassment, except perhaps among corporate executives who cover for each other.”
The NLPC is asking Quincey to “immediately seek the resignation of Robert A. ‘Bobby’ Kotick from his directorship on the Board of The Coca-Cola Company, and that he be removed from consideration as a director candidate for reappointment at the 2022 Annual Meeting of Shareowners.”
“Should Mr. Kotick refuse to voluntarily leave his directorship, we request that you call a special meeting of the directors to remove him.”
The full text of Chesser’s letter is below. Please note that while in support of a good cause here, the right-wing NLPC have a long history of attacks on trade unions, legal aid lawyers, liberal politicians, and activist athletes like Lebron James (also note their defensive comments below about Georgia’s Election Integrity Act, a shameless Trumpian power grab):
