The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

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).

usatoday.com - Trump to corporations stop dei

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.”
