<p>Meta is immediately dropping its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) hiring and training policies in a move that some say may be part of a broader strategy by the company to ingratiate itself with the incoming Trump administration.</p>
<p>The announcement was made in an internal memo from the company’s vice president of human resources, Janelle Gale, Axios <a href="https://www.axios.com/2025/01/10/meta-dei-programs-employees-trump">reported</a>. According to the memo, the decision was made because the &#8220;legal and policy landscape surrounding diversity, equity and inclusion efforts in the United States is changing.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The Supreme Court of the United States has recently made decisions signaling a shift in how courts will approach DEI,” the memo says. “The term &#8216;DEI&#8217; has also become charged, in part because it is understood by some as a practice that suggests preferential treatment of some groups over others.”</p>
<p>Gale&#8217;s memo also outlined the specific changes that would take place at the company. It will now stop using the “diverse slate approach” in hiring and end representation goals, which she said &#8220;can create the impression that decisions are being made based on race or gender.&#8221;</p>
<p>Meta will also abolish its DEI team and create a new role for its chief diversity officer, focusing on accessibility and engagement. The memo also explained that Meta will cease its diverse supplier agenda and &#8220;focus our efforts on supporting small and medium-sized businesses that power much of our economy.&#8221;</p>

<p>The decision from Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta comes days after he <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/facebook-fact-checkers-freak-out-call-emergency-meeting-after-zuckerberg-pulls-funding">announced</a> Facebook and Instagram would stop its independent fact-checking operations, which critics say have been used to unfairly police speech. The company also pledged a <a href="https://www.axios.com/2024/12/12/meta-trump-donation-inaugural-fund-zuckerberg">$1 million donation</a> to support President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration.</p>
<p>Other major companies, including <a href="https://www.axios.com/2024/11/27/walmart-diversity-equity-inclusion-robby-starbuck">Walmart</a> and <a href="https://www.axios.com/2025/01/06/mcdonalds-corporate-diversity-starbuck-trump">McDonald’s</a>, recently announced that they would end or roll back DEI initiatives after Trump’s November victory.</p>
<p>Various other companies, however, have a history of engaging in anti-white, anti-Asian, and anti-male discrimination through their DEI policies. Upon entry into the executive branch, the Trump administration will have the opportunity to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-doj-could-crack-down-on-dei-fueled-discrimination-against-whites-and-asians">crack down</a> on companies like Apple, Oracle, IBM, McKinsey and Company, and numerous others that imposed race and sex-based selection criteria on professional development opportunities.</p>
