Not surprising that companies are taking stands since unplanned pregnancies negatively impact a company in various ways due to employees dropping out and/or using more health insurance.
No, that is idiotic, and not at all what is going on here.
None of this is being done with a business motive. ALL pregnancies impact a company equally, planned or not, because companies have to pay maternity leave. Yet has a single company spoken out against pregnancy? No. Have any of them suggested sterilization or aggressive contraceptive use? No. Have any discouraged anything that "uses more health insurance" in any way (being trans or obese)? No. So all these things you'd expect to see if your thesis was correct, none of them have happened.
This leaves us with the very obvious alternative: these dumbfuck corpos - many not even American - are doing this as pure politics. This is clear on the face of the tweets posted in the article.
