Summary
Costco’s board rejected a shareholder proposal to end its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies, arguing they foster respect, innovation, and cultural alignment with customers and employees.
Shareholders claimed DEI could lead to lawsuits citing “illegal discrimination” against white, Asian, male, or straight employees, referencing legal cases like Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard.
Costco countered that its DEI efforts comply with the law and enhance its culture, rejecting claims of legal risk.
The proposal will be voted on at Costco’s January 23 shareholder meeting.
I hope they intend to eat the board at the earliest possible opportunity
They could always grind them up to make into those $1.50 hot dogs.
Did you misunderstand who’s the asshole here, or are you siding with the shareholders who called for the termination of DEI?
I was just making a hot dog joke, man. We can grind up the shareholders first.
Alright Dahmer, calm the fuck down.
I took it as GTA2 Russian Mafia thing
