BELLEVUE, Wash. – Today, T-Mobile USA announced the company’s endorsement of Referendum 74 by donating to, and supporting the efforts of, Washington United for Marriage (WUM), the broad, bipartisan statewide coalition working to defend the state’s marriage law.
“T-Mobile has a long-standing focus on creating an inclusive workplace environment for our employees,” said Jim Alling, interim chief executive officer and chief operating officer. “Our support of this issue is a reflection of our culture, how we do business, and our belief in the fair and equitable treatment of all employees.”
WUM campaign manager, Zach Silk said, “We are very excited that T-Mobile has decided to take this important step in endorsing our effort to approve Referendum 74. As one of the top employers in the Puget Sound area, T-Mobile’s support demonstrates a commitment to employees, customers and communities in Washington state.”
More than 4,800 T-Mobile employees live and work in Washington state.
I am a Tmobile employee and my company is just wrong!
Nobody who supports measures like this has any understanding of right and wrong. Homosexuality has drawn God’s judgement in the past and will do so again.
PUBLICLY DISSING your EMPLOYER, huh, Bill Turner? Apparently you have NO understanding of what it takes to keep your JOB- right,Bill Turner?
Well now I have a very good reason to NOT renew in six weeks when my contract is up. T-Mobile needs to learn to stay out of politics. Bye Bye T-Mobile, off to a more homo friendly horizon at Verizon….
Referendum 74 is a PRO-MARRIAGE EQUALITY ballot initiative!
I am so proud to be a part of a company that not only recognizes the value in ALL of it’s employees but one that has the courage to publicly back it up! Thank you T-Mobile, for supporting my family and equality for ALL of your employees.
