Target becomes latest US firm to end DEI initiatives
Briefly

Target has announced the termination of its diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs, aligning with a wave of corporate retreats from such initiatives following the influence of political changes. This follows President Trump's executive order encouraging the halt of DEI programs in federal jobs and urging the private sector to reflect similar policies. The decision to discontinue the Racial Equity Action and Change (REACH) initiatives is part of a broader trend, where companies like Walmart, Amazon, and Meta have similarly rolled back their commitments amidst shifting public sentiment and political pressures.
Target is rolling back its diversity, equity and inclusion programmes, reflecting a trend among major companies following pressures and changing policies surrounding DEI initiatives.
