Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.”

He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.”

Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up.

Marriott still has my business.

Where is the peace and prosperity we were promised on Day One? No peace for Ukraine and no prosperity at home. Just a lot of lost court cases based on the Administration violating the US Constitution and federal laws.
