Description

Amy Lannom Wilhite is executive director at 2ndVote, which keeps track of major companies' positions on social issues such as the transgender agenda."You wouldn't support [certain positions] at the ballot box with a candidate that you vote for, so why would you spend your dollars there?" asks Wilhite, who joins "The Daily Signal Podcast" to talk about how her organization helps Americans make consumer decisions based on their convictions."We say your first vote is at the ballot box and your second vote is with your wallet," Wilhite says. "It's the power of what you have in your pocket and with the money that you spend. And we want to educate consumers so that they can shop their values [and] so that we can make change with all the corporate activism that's going on."We also cover these stories:House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy calls for China to be held accountable for the COVID-19 pandemic. In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court rules against the NCAA on the question of paying student athletes. New Zealand weightlifter Laurel Hubbard is set to be the first transgender athlete to compete in the Olympics.  Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.
