BUY BLUE rates companies according to how much campaign contributions they gave to Democrats (blue) or Republicans (red) and also on criteria such as Labor & Human Rights and Environment. Their motto is: "Stop supporting companies that don't support your values. Reward companies that have a triple bottom line: People, Planet and Profit." and also "Vote With Your Wallet".
