Shareholder Group and Gender Ideology Opponent to Press Disney on Discrimination at Company’s Annual Meeting

NLPC

National Legal and Policy Center, an investor in The Walt Disney Company, and healthcare accountability group Do No Harm, will present a shareholder proposal at the iconic media and entertainment corporation’s annual meeting on April 3. The measure asks the company to investigate its discriminatory pay and benefits policies – specifically addressing where employees affected by gender-switching advocacy have been psychologically or medically harmed, without providing remedial care – and reporting to shareholders why such compensation gaps exist at an allegedly tolerant company. Speaking at the Disney meeting in support of the proposal will be Chloe Cole, patient advocate for Do No Harm, who has testified before legislative bodies nationwide in opposition to gender ideology and its destructive health consequences. Ms. Cole will address the company’s board of directors, including beleaguered CEO Robert Iger, and tell her story about her difficulties in finding medical care and insurance coverage in her efforts to “de-transition,” after trying earlier in her life to switch from the biological sex she was born with. Ahead of the Disney meeting, NLPC released a one-minute video to highlight the shareholder proposal. The corporate and government watchdog also filed a white paper with the Securities and Exchange Commission earlier this month to more fully explain the necessity for the company to investigate its discriminatory policies. “Disney has been so proud about its 100-percent score on the Corporate Equality Index, designed by the pro-LGBTQIA+ Human Rights Campaign, which requires companies to cover sex change treatments in their health insurance offerings,” said Paul Chesser, director of NLPC’s Corporate Integrity Project. “Now we call upon Mr. Iger to lead the way for Corporate America to provide equal care for those who have suffered physical harm as a result, and who want bodily restoration. Besides the damage they have suffered, they are also discriminated against.” As NLPC points out in its shareholder proposal, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission considers failure to provide equivalent pay and benefits based on categories including “gender identity” and “sexual orientation” as discriminatory. Even the Securities and Exchange Commission agreed with NLPC that de-transitioning individuals fit under such classifications when considering unfairness in corporate compensation practices. In its opposition statement (p. 104 at link) to the proposal, Disney alleges that NLPC is just trying to “generate attention” with a “narrow focus…to advance a limited agenda.” “Disney acts as if people like me don’t exist,” said Chloe Cole. “I intend to make sure the board and Mr. Iger hear that the company’s irrational gender ideology policies are actually destructive, and that I am a victim of policies like it. De-transitioners like me are not going away. With the numbers of LGBTQIA+ workers at the company who have sought ill-advised sex changes, you can bet that litigation over deception, and discriminatory benefits policies, won’t be far behind.” You can read NLPC’s shareholder proposal at its website. Learn more about Do No Harm at its website. ### For more information or to schedule an interview with Paul Chesser, contact Dan Rene at 202-329-8357 or drene@nlpc.org.

BlackRock Indecisive About Ethereum ETF, Solana Staking Overview, Bullish KangaMoon (KANG) Reaches New Milestone

Kangamoon

Amidst the bullish sentiment surrounding KangaMoon, notable developments in the cryptocurrency market have sparked further intrigue. BlackRock, a leading global asset manager, is contemplating a reassessment of its digital asset strategy, particularly regarding the potential introduction of an Ethereum (ETH) Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF). Additionally, Solana (SOL) emerges as a contender in terms of economic security, with its staking ecosystem steadily approaching Ethereum's stature. KangaMoon (KANG): Bullish Altcoin Keeps Making Waves KangaMoon (KANG) has experienced an impressive surge of 180% since the commencement of its presale, reaching its current price of $0.014 in Stage 4. Early backers are celebrating substantial returns on their investment, with crypto analysts anticipating further gains in the near future. Projections suggest a potential 100x increase, potentially propelling the price of the KANG altcoin to $1, signaling significant growth on the horizon. What sets the KangaMoon project apart is its innovative approach, diverging from conventional meme coins by integrating community engagement and Play to Earn (P2E) mechanics. The project prioritizes its community, offering various opportunities for users to earn KANG tokens through social media challenges and active involvement in shaping its development trajectory. This distinctive SocialFi strategy cultivates a robust sense of ownership among participants and drives sustainable expansion. As outlined in KangaMoon's road map, the project is slated to list its KANG token in Q2 2024. For investors seeking promising crypto assets, this presents an opportune moment to consider joining the KangaMoon project before its official launch. By embracing KangaMoon early on, investors can position themselves to potentially capitalize on its anticipated growth trajectory. BlackRock Contemplates Reassessment of Ethereum (ETH) Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) in Response to Client Preferences BlackRock, the leading global asset manager, is deliberating whether to proceed with its application for an Ethereum ETF. This reassessment follows the successful introduction of its Bitcoin ETF earlier in 2024. During the Bitcoin Investor Day conference in New York, Robert Mitchnick, BlackRock's digital assets head, emphasized the firm's clients' keen interest in Bitcoin. Mitchnick highlighted that compared to Bitcoin, there is considerably less demand for Ethereum and other cryptocurrencies. These observations suggest a potential shift in BlackRock's digital asset strategy, with Ethereum appearing less favored. Despite internal discussions about the Ethereum ETF, a definitive decision regarding the application has yet to be made by BlackRock. Solana (SOL) Economic Security and Staking Overview With a combined staking value now standing at $70 billion, Solana (SOL) is steadily approaching Ethereum (ETH) in terms of economic security. Nevertheless, Solana's staking ecosystem exhibits significant concentration, with a substantial portion of locked SOL attributed to the Solana Foundation or affiliated venture capital entities. Despite the apparent surge in staked Solana (SOL), it's important to recognize that the supply dynamics, notably the daily inflation of $20 million for stakers, add complexity to interpreting staking as a metric of economic security for ordinary holders. Analysts are deliberating on potential support levels for Solana (SOL) amidst ongoing market fluctuations. While some suggest that support levels at $106.9 and $128.8 may be revisited in the event of Bitcoin dropping below the $60,000 threshold, indicators do not strongly indicate an imminent deep retracement. Conclusion In conclusion, the cryptocurrency market continues to witness dynamic shifts and noteworthy developments, with KangaMoon (KANG) leading the charge in the altcoin market with its remarkable surge and innovative approach. As investors eagerly anticipate the listing of KANG tokens in Q2 2024, the project's emphasis on community engagement and sustainable growth positions it as a compelling investment opportunity.
