“he Republican Alternative votes to defend private enterprise, capital investment, and the fundamental rights of property owners. Corporate governance must remain in the hands of the shareholders who take the financial risks. Forcing political or union control onto private company boards destroys business confidence, frightens away international capital, and kills job creation. We vote to guarantee economic freedom, protect investors, and secure real growth for Verdia”
