Following Donald Trump's recent executive orders that dismantled federal diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs, major US corporations have begun reassessing their own DEI commitments. Companies like Goldman Sachs and Accenture have scrapped existing policies aimed at promoting diversity within their operations. This trend is fueled by a conservative push to eliminate these initiatives, which many argue promote reverse discrimination. These efforts were bolstered by a 2023 Supreme Court ruling that prohibited affirmative action in college admissions, leading to legal actions against companies upholding DEI programs, particularly in finance and tech sectors.
Since Donald Trump's executive orders to repeal DEI initiatives, large US companies have begun rolling back their diversity programs, marking a significant cultural shift.
Rightwing campaigners have intensified their efforts against inclusion policies, arguing they create reverse discrimination, especially after a recent Supreme Court ruling against affirmative action.
