Eighty-eight current and former corporate leaders have endorsed Kamala Harris for President according to an exclusive letter shared with CNBC.
The endorsement included a short letter saying Kamala's election would be the "best way to support the continued strength, security, and reliability of our democracy and economy."
The letter went on to allege that Kamala "wants American industries to thrive" and even alleged that Kamala had a "strong record of advancing actions to spur business investment in the United States" and ensuring American companies could "complete and win in the global market."
Curiously, the signatories believe that Kamala will advance "fair and predictable policies that support the rule of law, stability, and a sound business environment" so that everyone can pursue their "American dream."
Some of the notable signers include: Lynn Forester de Rothschild; Mark Cuban; the 38th U.S. Secretary of Commerce, Penny Pritzker; James Murdoch; Earvin "Magic" Johnson; former U.S. Treasury Secretary, Robert Rubin; 71st United States Secretary of the Treasury, Larry Summers; and Trump lawfare financier Reid Hoffman.
For those of you in the New York and Fairfield County, CT, areas, note that the President and Co-Founder of Chelsea Piers, Tom Bernstein, is on the list.
So is Maverick Carter, CEO of The SpringHill Company, which was co-founded by LeBron James.
Other signatories on the letter include current leaders from financial services firms (e.g., General Catalyst, TCG, Centerview Partners, Clearlake Capital, Ariel Investments), online service providers (e.g, Expedia, LinkedIn), restaurants & hospitality (e.g., Danny Meyer, Jackmont Hospitality), legal firms (e.g, Kleiner Perkins; Paul, Weiss), food and beverage companies (e.g., Sovos Brands, which is now part of Campbell Soup; Chobani Yogurt) and even a philanthropic firm focused on "climate change" (Three Cairns).
