Why TF is Target scaling back DEI policies? Other companies are following suit.

This likely has something to do with it: one of Trump's Executive Orders ends DEI programs not just for the federal government, but for any private companies that contract with the federal government (probably paving the way to make it easier for his buddies to get government contracts).

The widely anticipated action to overturn decades of affirmative action and diversity precedent is expected to have an immediate chilling effect on corporate DEI efforts.

Trump’s executive order aims to end diversity, equity and inclusion policies in the federal government and affirmative action in federal contracting. It bars the government from pushing contractors to diversify their workforce and taps federal agencies to use Civil Rights-era laws “to combat illegal private-sector DEI preferences, mandates, policies, programs and activities.”
