T-Mobile tells FCC it's scrapping DEI
Digest more
T-Mobile said in a July 8 letter to the FCC that it would end its DEI-related policies "not just in name, but in substance."
The backlash against DEI gained steam during the 2024 presidential election but hit a fever pitch when Trump took office. The private sector has rushed to distance itself from the policies it once trumpeted after the president threatened to strip federal contracts from companies that stood by their DEI programs.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The Federal Communications Commission has approved two transactions involving T-Mobile this week, a statement by the commission showed on Friday, after the wireless carrier said it was ending its diversity, equity and inclusion programs.
