Costco Wholesale faces an upcoming proxy battle brought by the National Center for Public Policy Research (NCPPR), challenging its diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) program.

I upgraded and renewed my #Costco membership on this news.

THIS is the kind of company I want to do business with. Pay their workers well, treat them well and take care of their customers.

A right-wing investor group tried to force #Costco to abandon its DEI policies. The company responded:

“Our Board has considered this proposal and believes that our commitment to an enterprise rooted in respect and inclusion is appropriate and necessary… Our success at Costco Wholesale has been built on service to our critical stakeholders: employees, members and suppliers. Our efforts around diversity, equity, and inclusion follow our code of ethics.”
