UltraViolet Calls On DNC to Keep Bloomberg Off Debate Stage Unless the Billionaire Releases

UltraViolet Calls On DNC to Keep Bloomberg Off Debate Stage Unless the Billionaire Releases Former Employees From NDAs

Women's advocacy group UltraViolet called on the Democratic National Committee to keep former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg off the debate stage until the billionaire releases his former employees from non-disclosure agreements about alleged mistreatment at his company.

The group reiterated its call Thursday after Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) lambasted Bloomberg over the dozens of sexual harassment allegations against him and his company and for refusing to release the women from NDAs at Wednesday night's presidential debate. UltraViolet originally circulated a petition ahead of the debate regarding the issue.

Nope. No free ride for him. Although I do think he should release his NDAs. He won’t though.

Heck, I suspect he’d be perfectly happy to skip any further debates.

better understand him, much better. His lack of willingness to release will be on the stage instead of him.
