Republican Attorneys General Call on Costco to End DEI Policies

Nineteen Republican Attorneys General, including Dave Yost, urged Costco to end its Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion policies, claiming they are divisive and illegal according to courts and businesses.
The letter demands that Costco respond within 30 days, either by repealing the DEI policies or providing an explanation for not doing so.
Costco shareholders recently rejected a proposal to review DEI policies, with over 98% voting against it, indicating strong support for maintaining these policies.
Democratic lawmakers, including Senator Bill DeMora, criticized the letter, arguing that it is inappropriate for the government to interfere with a company's successful policies.
