Yesterday, I addressed the PayPal Annual General Assembly Meeting (AGM), where I presented, on behalf of Harrington Investments, a 5-minute statement supporting a shareholder resolution asking shareholders to vote to extend PayPal services to Palestinians in Palestine. PayPal’s board recommended a “no” vote, and the shareholder resolution did not pass. However, this is not the end of the road; standby for the next steps.
You may hear my statement here, starting at 7:10:

All my respect to Harrington Investments, a leader in Socially Responsible Investing and Shareholder Advocacy since 1982!
