National Boycott Targets McDonald's Over Rollback of Diversity Initiatives. A national boycott against McDonald's has been launched over its rollback of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. The People’s Union USA calls for a seven-day "economic blackout" of the fast-food giant through June 30. John Schwarz, the leader of the group, stated the boycott is a message against corporate practices like inequality and price gouging. McDonald’s announced in January it would end diversity goals for leadership and supplier diversity training. The company emphasized its core value of inclusion, despite making changes to its DEI programs after political pressure. McDonald’s defended its actions, maintaining that its commitment to inclusion remains unchanged. The boycott comes after McDonald's adjustments to diversity programs following political pressures under the Trump administration. McDonald’s continues to stress its dedication to diversity, despite the backlash surrounding its program changes.
