HII believes that voluntary corporate codes of conduct and corporate social responsibility reports have been put forward by corporate management in an effort to obfuscate their companies' complicity with human rights violations. In their eagerness to placate human rights advocates, the companies have adopted meaningless voluntary codes while continuing to do business with the Chinese terrorist government, strengthening the government's repressive technological infrastructure and overall economy.

Beginning in 2007, HII advanced a program of introducing binding by-law amendments as shareholder resolutions to a number of corporations held by HII and the clients of HII. The first of several include shareholder resolutions to create a Board of Directors Committee on Human Rights, in an effort to recognize that directors have a fiduciary duty to avoid complicity with foreign governments that consistently and flagrantly violate internationally recognized human rights. HII believes that this a modest proposal to respond to human rights abuses worldwide and corporate complicity in violating those basic rights. This would recognize a board's fiduciary duty to adhere to a universal code of human rights while accepting personal and collective responsibility for corporate action. This fiduciary responsibility would insure that shareholder value and reputation would remain intact while avoiding costly litigation and a loss of investor confidence.
