Proponents of the bill say it would increase security in election practices, but critics say it would suppress voter turnout. President Joe Biden went as far as to say the bill was &#8220;Jim Crow in the 21st century.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After talk of a boycott from activists, Georgia-based companies Delta and Coca-Cola caved to demands and issued statements condemning the Georgia law. Bastian said the law &#8220;does not match Delta\u2019s values&#8221; and targets African-American communities. But Gov.&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kemp responded the law had similar identification requirements to air travel on Delta\u2014both require a photo ID.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rubio also requested Delta return his letter asking the company to condemn human rights abuses in China. The airline is a business partner of the Chinese Communist Party, which oversees the genocide of Uighur Muslims in western China and ranks among the world\u2019s worst human rights violators. Delta&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/news.delta.com\/delta-add-two-more-us-china-weekly-flights-customers-take-skies\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">expanded<\/a> its flight schedule to China following a rebound in travel last summer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;I look forward to that letter saying that genocide does not reflect the values of Delta Air Lines,&#8221; Rubio said. &#8220;Of course they\u2019re not going to send that letter.
