Nineteen Republican attorneys general have called on Costco Wholesale to abandon its diversity, equity, and inclusion policies, citing concerns about about discrimination and legal risks
This comes after 98% of the U.S. retailer’s shareholders last week voted against a proposal requesting a report on the risks tied to its diversity and inclusion initiatives, pushing back against the growing scrutiny such policies face.
They’re saying that protecting their shareholders means not telling the state AG’s to fuck off, and approaching the stupidity as if it’s a serious threat to their business from these despotic chucklefucks.
Stupid or not, the AG’s wield power that can harm Costco, and by extension, their shareholders.
Edit: Completing the thought - Which is to say. They should politely and legally tell them to fuck off.
