PETITION: Urge Hy-Vee to stop stocking Raygun products because of abortion funding

  • 2,030
 

Raygun is an Iowa-based clothier, known for their controversial, political t-shirts.

Unfortunately, that's not all Raygun is known for...

Raygun also uses some of their proceeds to fund abortions, which they proudly brag about on their website. They have even held fund-raisers for Iowa Abortion Access Fund (see the picture above and click here to go to the Iowa Abortion Access Fund website) - an organization which directly pays for abortions.

Hy-Vee, on the other hand, is a family-friendly, Iowa-based supermarket.

But, lately, Hy-Vee has been hosting Raygun clothing displays in their stores, and, in particular, displays for children's clothing (see the picture above which shows a children's display in a local Hy-Vee store).

Therefore, by stocking Raygun clothing in their stores, Hy-Vee is, itself, indirectly supporting abortion, and forcing its customers to indirectly support abortion.

Please SIGN this joint petition, between LifeSite and Personhood Iowa, which asks Hy-Vee to remove Raygun displays in their stores and not renew Raygun's contract going forward.

Of course, it is possible (even probable) that Hy-Vee may not even know about Raygun's appalling promotion and funding of abortion.

So, now is the time to make Hy-Vee aware of how offensive Raygun's funding of abortion is to their customers.

Hy-Vee is an employee-owned corporation, which should mean that each local store has some autonomy as to what products are and are not sold.

For this reason, we are also providing the telephone number of the Hy-Vee corporate headquarters which can be used to politely voice your disapproval.

And, additionally, we are also providing the link for their store locator, so that you can locate your nearest Hy-Vee to, again, express your disapproval to your local store manager, in person if possible.

Thank you for SIGNING this petition and using the following information to CONTACT Hy-Vee to politely ask them to remove Raygun displays in their stores and to not renew Raygun's contract in the future.

Hy-Vee's Corporate telephone number: (515) 267-2800

Hy-Vee's store locator (to locate your nearest store): hy-vee.com/stores/

FOR MORE INFORMATION:

Please feel free to adapt the following sample script if and when you call Hy-Vee:

"Hello, I'm calling to let you know that I was shocked to learn that Raygun - one of your clothing suppliers - actually funds abortions."

"I'm not sure if you were even aware of this situation. But for me, my family, and my friends, this is unacceptable."

"I have signed a petition asking Hy-Vee to remove Raygun displays from your stores and not to award them contracts in the future."

"This is the kind of thing which will influence my shopping preference now and in the future. So, I would appreciate if you could let your executives know about my serious concern. I'll also be talking about this with my family and friends over the next couple of weeks."

"Thank you for your time. Goodbye."
