It’s interesting they’re going this route, making the contributions optional (and visible) - but under Citizens United a company is free to directly participate in politics to “its” heart’s content, without needing contributions from individuals. And, of course, any money the corporation spends on politics is money not being put into wages. The “PAC contribution” method they’ve chosen is tricky because it lets them take the money from wages they’ve already agreed to pay, but going forward they could refuse raises or even cut wages in order to free up money for corporate political speech.
