In addition, following the ACSR’s recommendation, the CCSR voted to oppose a resolution calling on Entergy, an energy provider, to appoint an independent commission to review its nuclear energy safety policies. Opponents of the proposal remarked that the nuclear power industry is “most highly regulated industry in the country” and that Entergy has a good safety record.

Fast food giant McDonald’s was the target of three proposals. The committees voted in favor of resolutions that called on the company to prepare reports on its human rights practices and on its nutritional initiatives, respectively. The committees abstained on a proposal urging the company to calculate and release the salary ratio between its CEO and its lowest-paid employee.

Other proposals concerned issues such as JPMorgan Chase’s investments in PetroChina and, for the first time, the efforts of companies to advance the economic rights of women in developing countries.
