Republican politicians like Jim Jordan and Matt Gaetz are criticizing DEI hiring practices, labeling them as racist wokeism. They argue that DEI initiatives are losing popularity due to being perceived as racist. Companies are responding to Republican backlash by rebranding DEI as 'inclusion', which some believe blurs the distinction between DEI and HR practices focused on tackling racial disparities in corporate hiring and promotion.
DEI is losing and they know it. https://t.co/x1fhIHT72o

As companies react to the Republican backlash against DEI and rebrand it as "inclusion", the problem is this now makes it indistinguishable from HR. What was novel was tackling racial disparities in corporate hiring & promotion practices. https://t.co/1S6SqNkLrq
Jim Jordan is correct. DEI hiring practices are racist wokeism. FL-01 Republicans should know my opponent @aaronwdimmock is a DEI pusher. https://t.co/YFCqpfqXdp https://t.co/Ry3Pg6xKA4
