Lobbying Governance

Cal-Maine provides only minimal insight into how it governs lobbying or policy engagement to support its climate commitments. It states that “The board is responsible for reviewing external engagement activities,” indicating that a formal oversight body is tasked with reviewing such engagement, but the company does not disclose any specific policy, procedure, or criteria currently in place to align those activities with its climate-transition goals. Instead, it notes that “Cal-Maine is in the works of creating a protocol for climate commitments and/or climate transition plan through a broad environmental policy,” suggesting that the actual governance framework remains under development. We found no evidence of mechanisms for ensuring consistency across both direct and indirect lobbying, no named individual for accountability beyond the board, and no details on how reviews will be structured or applied to trade associations or advocacy efforts, which indicates that key elements of a lobbying governance process have yet to be defined.
