Former American Express CEO Ken Chenault, who led a group of dozens of Black corporate executives urging more corporations to speak out against Georgia’s new voting law, on Sunday decried the Major League Baseball’s move to relocate its All-Star Game and 2021 draft out of Atlanta in response to the legislation’s restrictive provisions.
Appearing on CNN, Chenault was asked whether the MLB made the right decision in moving its All-Star game and draft out of Atlanta.
Chenault replied that the issue of voting rights restrictions isn’t only limited to Georgia, pointing to other proposals in 43 states, before saying that he and other Black executives who signed the open letter condemning the new voting law disagree with the MLB’s decision.
