Google is scrapping some of its diversity hiring targets, joining a lengthening list of U.S. companies that have been abandoning or scaling back their diversity, equity and inclusion programs.

Following Trump's lead, organizations including Walmart, Lowe’s and Meta have announced they would scale back their commitments to diversity, equity and inclusion programs.

Alphabet Inc.’s Google told employees that it will no longer formally seek to improve the diversity of its workforce, marking the latest step in Silicon Valley’s retreat from initiatives that have fallen out of favor during US President Donald Trump’s administration.
