A coalition including the American Federation of Teachers and Public Citizen has launched the “Take Back Tesla” campaign. The initiative urges shareholders to vote against a compensation package that would grant CEO Elon Musk nearly $1 trillion in stock. The campaign argues the package is excessive and doesn’t address concerns about Musk’s divided attention.
Shareholder Campaign Targets Musk Compensation
A coalition of labor unions and corporate watchdog groups has launched the “Take Back Tesla” campaign, urging shareholders to reject what they describe as an “outrageous” compensation package for CEO Elon Musk that could be worth nearly $1 trillion, according to reports. The campaign comes just ahead of Tesla’s quarterly earnings report and ahead of next month’s annual shareholder meeting where the proposal will be voted on.
