Big tech companies Meta Platforms and Alphabet’s Google are among the companies that have rolled back such programs in the face of attacks from conservative groups.

President Donald Trump and his administration have targeted diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies inside and outside the government. Attorney General Pam Bondi on Wednesday in a note to staff said the Justice Department would "investigate, eliminate, and penalize" illegal diversity programs in the private sector.

Following Trump's lead, organizations including Walmart, Lowe’s and Meta have announced they would scale back their commitments to diversity, equity and inclusion programs.
