Asian American lawmakers are urging Fortune 100 companies to uphold diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) efforts amid backlash from conservative opposition. What it’s about: On Tuesday, the executive board of the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus (CAPAC) revealed that they sent a letter to the CEOs and heads of America's Fortune 100 companies, which are the top 100 largest U.S. companies by revenue, urging them to reaffirm their commitments to hiring and promoting Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders (AANHPI). Led by CAPAC Chair Judy Chu (D, CA-28), the initiative seeks to gauge the progress of DEI practices for AANHPI within these organizations amid the ongoing fight against anti-Asian hate.
