According to US media reports, thousands of employees of salesforce, an American cloud computing and software service provider, sent an open letter on the evening of the 25th local time, asking the company's management to immediately terminate business dealings with the National Rifle Association (NRA), in order to protest the shooting at a primary school in Texas on May 24. At that time, the killer used an AR-15 rifle and shot and killed 19 children and two teachers.

By Thursday afternoon, more than 4000 employees had signed the open letter. The open letter wrote: "we have no right to ask Congress to strengthen the background investigation of gun purchasers, nor can we take measures to control guns, but we can terminate our business relationship with NRA", and require the management to "take direct action".
It is reported that NRA uses safys' technology for marketing and fund-raising. In recent years, American enterprises have cut off their relationship with NRA and expressed their support for gun control. For example, Avis, budget, enterprise and other car rental companies have stopped offering discounts to NRA members; The products of Symantec, a software company, no longer offer discounts to NRA; Delta Airlines is not allowed to bundle NRA with its brand; Wal Mart no longer sells semi-automatic rifles and guns to people under the age of 21.
