Business Leaders’ Declaration Against the Death Penalty
More than 450 business leaders from around the world have united in a shared commitment to end the death penalty. Join them in standing for systems of justice that are fair, safe, and humane toward all.
Our Declaration
We stand united in our belief in a fairer and more equitable world, the rule of law, and universal human rights. As an irreversible and extreme form of punishment, the death penalty is inhumane, and it is irreconcilable with human dignity. Its worldwide abolition is a moral imperative that all of humanity should support.
We can no longer stay silent on issues of inequality, and no issue is more intricately tied to the racial and socio-economic biases that permeate justice systems than the death penalty. In many countries, ethnic minorities and the poor are still more likely to be prosecuted, sentenced to death, and ultimately executed. The abolition of capital punishment is a critical step in the movement toward racial and social equality.
We are committed to making our communities safer. The death penalty does not make communities safer and it does not address the root causes of crime. Nor does it serve as a deterrent. Statistics show that U.S. states with the death penalty have higher murder rates than those without. This is consistent with international findings showing that countries that have abolished capital punishment experienced a decline in murder rates over time. We can no longer afford to jeopardize the safety of our communities by perpetuating a culture of violence and revenge.
We recognize the danger of executing innocent people. In the U.S., for every eight people executed, one innocent person has been exonerated. By all accounts, the true number of innocent people who continue to languish on death row — or who have been executed — is much higher. Any system with an error rate this high Is broken beyond repair.
We believe, now more than ever, that we must be responsible with public finances. The death penalty is a wasteful and ineffective misallocation of public resources. To maintain the broken system of capital punishment, some governments divert millions of dollars every year from critical public health and safety initiatives, from infrastructure development, and from education — missing crucial opportunities to build social stability and strengthen communities.
But there is progress. More than 170 UN Member States have abolished the death penalty in law or practice. More than half of all U.S. states have abolished the death penalty or stopped executions. The tide is turning, and now it is the responsibility of business leaders to speak up and stand together on the right side of history. It is time to end this cruelty once and for all.
Where the death penalty still exists, we urge government leaders to legally commute death sentences, to impose moratoria on executions and to support legislative or ballot initiatives to end capital punishment for good.
We commit to using our voices and our reach as business leaders to support ending the death penalty everywhere, beginning with signing this declaration.
