Nineteen Republican attorneys general have called on Costco Wholesale to abandon its diversity, equity, and inclusion policies, citing concerns about about discrimination and legal risks

This comes after 98% of the U.S. retailer’s shareholders last week voted against a proposal requesting a report on the risks tied to its diversity and inclusion initiatives, pushing back against the growing scrutiny such policies face.

    That’s explicitly false, Costco’s minimum starting wage is $18.50 an hour, that’s more than twice as much as any other grocer. They have a strong union, give better raises and COL adjustments than any of their competitors, have reasonable shareholders, resist affronts from fascist government that every other company pre-emptively bows to, and has lower prices than other grocers in my area.

    This comment is propaganda. Costco is great.
