Federal Crackdown on DEI Programs in Big US Companies
from The Daily News Now! Business
Federal officials are intensifying their crackdown on diversity, equity, and inclusion programs in major US companies. Theyve targeted Disney, IBM, and Nike with reviews and lawsuits over discrimination claims. The EEOC is also demanding documents from Nike and Northwestern Mutual. Conservative groups are pushing shareholder proposals, leading to quiet deals where companies scale back on LGBTQ support and race-based board picks. With no clear legal definition of what constitutes illegal DEI, companies like Salesforce and Apple are adjusting donation matches and content filters, while others like Costco remain steadfast. The federal heat is keeping corporate America on edge. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
