Walmart aims to scale back DEI initiatives. California Attorney General Bonta urges it not to
Briefly

Rob Bonta urged Walmart to prioritize its diversity programs, emphasizing that a workplace free from discrimination and harassment benefits workers, consumers, and the company's success.
Bonta highlighted the importance of these DEI programs, particularly following the murder of George Floyd, and how Walmart's initiatives were crucial for the welfare of its diverse workforce.
In the face of growing pressure from conservatives, Bonta's letter represents a coalition of 13 attorneys general advocating for the necessity of sustained diversity efforts in large corporations.
Despite previously showing commitment to diversity through reports detailing ethnic and gender representation, Walmart is now stepping back from its DEI initiatives, paralleling trends among other major companies.
