Independent proxy advisor urges stakeholders to vote against re-election of Amazon board director

New York City Comptroller Brad Lander welcomed a report released by Glass Lewis, an independent proxy advisor, which recommended that Amazon shareholders vote ‘no’ to re-electing Board Director Judith McGrath.

Last month, a group of institutional investors led by Lander launched a “vote no” campaign calling on Amazon shareholders to oppose the re-election of Directors Judith McGrath and Daniel Huttenlocher for failing to provide independent oversight of workforce issues at the company.
