CEOs of 15 companies, including Fair360, formerly DiversityInc Top 50 companies Eli Lilly and Company, WellPoint and Cummins, voiced their protest to Indiana’s proposed same-gender-marriage ban in a letter published in the Indianapolis Star.
The CEOs noted that passage of HJR-3, a bill that would create a constitutional amendment banning same-gender marriage in Indiana, would put their companies at a serious disadvantage in attracting and retaining top talent. As of June 1, 17 states and Washington, D.C., will allow same-gender marriage.
