Companies must establish guidelines for how they will respond to potential legal attacks on their policies, said Sonja Spoo, the director of reproductive rights campaigns at the feminist advocacy group UltraViolet.

Match halts some political donations after accusations of ‘reprowashing’
What they’re saying: The women’s rights group UltraViolet is calling the practice of donating to causes that directly oppose company statements on reproductive rights “reprowashing” — and along with other progressives is pushing to stop corporations from doing it.
“Companies have to both provide the best benefits for their workers and also make sure that they’re not funding politicians who are making it necessary for workers to have to travel to get basic health care in the first place,” Sonja Spoo, the Director of Reproductive Rights Campaigns at women’s activist group UltraViolet, tells Axios.
