Investor Advocates for Social Justice
@iasj.bsky.social
We advocate on behalf of a community of investors whose faith-based values promote human rights, climate justice, racial equity and the common good.
This Vocation Awareness Week, we honor the women and men religious whose faith and conviction have guided IASJ’s mission. Their prophetic witness continues to inspire our work for justice, equity, and the common good.

Proposal 5 is a call for alignment between what Lockheed Martin says and what it funds, urging the company to report how its lobbying & election spending align with its Human Rights Policy. Misalignment puts shareholder value & human dignity at risk. On May 9th, Vote FOR Proposal 5!

The large win, indicated by 57.7% independent shareholder support, highlights investors' concerns related to transparency and accountability around poor working conditions and #humanrights. Investors expect Tyson to meaningfully address such concerns.

Proposal was filed following Tyson's Inaction to shareholders' ongoing concerns -poor working conditions and #humanrights in plants and supply chain, including racially disparate impacts on BIPOC workers, high rates of severe injuries, and illegal child labor.
