Amazon investors reject all 14 outside proposals
May 22, 2024 11:24 AM

May 22 (Reuters) - Amazon.com ( AMZN ) investors voted

against all 14 resolutions that would have requested the

retailer disclose more about its carbon emissions, its

directors' donations and form a committee to oversee artificial

intelligence development, among other issues.

Amazon ( AMZN ) announced the preliminary vote at its annual

shareholder meeting on Wednesday, where all 12 directors were

voted in for an additional term.

The company had asked shareholders to reject all of the

outside proposals. Additional resolutions sought to have Amazon ( AMZN )

create a committee to address the financial impact of policy

positions and produce reports on lobbying expenditures,

warehouse working conditions and packaging materials.

Amazon ( AMZN ) will later provide a full tally of the vote in a

securities filing.
