On May 23, Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody announced a state investigation into Starbucks' diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) practices. The investigation will examine whether the coffee chain's DEI policies, which include explicit racial makeup targets for its positions, violate Florida's anti-discrimination laws. Governor Ron DeSantis has also supported the investigation, emphasizing that discrimination against any group is unacceptable. The complaint against Starbucks centers on the company's race-based hiring quotas and DEI training programs. The state agency in charge of investigating violations of the Florida Civil Rights Act will conduct the probe.
