PROFLOWERS STATEMENT
At ProFlowers, our mission is to delight our customers with fresh and long lasting flowers, and that is our singular focus each and every day. We do not base our advertising decisions to align with any particular political view or opinion as our employees and customers are as diverse as the USA. Mr. Limbaugh’s recent comments went beyond political discourse to a personal attack and do not reflect our values as a company. As such, ProFlowers has suspended advertising on The Rush Limbaugh radio program.

Email them. Post on their FB page. Call them. Thank them for doing the right thing. If you purchase from them let them know that you are doing so because of this.

Better yet. Once we know for sure that it's not a temporary suspension, everyone should send flowers to Rush from ProFlowers.
