As an investor of Virgin Galactic, my trust has been worn thin by leaders who appear to be more focused on their hefty salaries than on meeting deadlines and delivering on promises. I believe it is necessary for Virgin Galactic to take exemplary actions and show that they are prioritizing progress over personal gain. With company's finances being largely spent on executive pay rather than focusing on completing their mission as a company, deadlines are often postponed and promises unmet. This has led to stock depreciation and dwindled investor confidence.

With commercial space travel at the brink of becoming mainstream, it is an undeniable fact that the company's assets and advancements contribute significantly to this emerging industry. However, the lack of expediency and the shifting of company goals causes investment risks and stalls the revolution of space travel. According to reports from Bloomberg, executive pay at Virgin Galactic is significantly high, which raises concerns about their commitment to their mission of making space accessible to all.

I urge the management and leadership at Virgin Galactic to take this petition into serious consideration. It’s not just our investment, but our belief in opening space for all, as many investors are invested because of their interests in space exploration. It’s not only investors to consider, but the loyal Virgin Galactic Customers who have waited over a decade for this opportunity. Opting for a significant pay cut would not only exemplify their commitment towards achieving their goals but also restore investors' faith in the firm's potential. As a concerned investor, I believe this act would also inspire the workforce and cement their dedication to achieving these promises quickly. The time is now for action—bold, decisive, meaningful action.

Please sign this petition to urge Virgin Galactic executives to take a significant pay cut as a symbol of their dedication to meeting deadlines and delivering promises.
