Voting rights group plans protest at UPS HQ in Sandy Springs amid legislation debate - Reporter Newspapers
A voting rights group will hold a protest March 25 at UPS headquarters in Sandy Springs on March 25 as part of a campaign urging corporations to oppose state legislation it says would suppress turnout and make it harder to vote.
The protest is planned from 4 to 5:30 p.m. at 55 Glenlake Parkway, said Fenika Miller, the state coordinator for Black Voters Matter.
“UPS believes in the importance of the democratic process and supports facilitating the ability of all eligible voters to exercise their civic duty,” the statement said. “Like other businesses in the community, we are working to ensure equitable access to the polls and the integrity of the election process across the state. We are also in continuous conversations with stakeholders to support the passage of legislation that accomplishes these important goals.“
