Ford is revising its diversity and inclusion policies amid shifting legal and political pressures.

CEO Jim Farley announced changes, including refocusing employee resource groups and ending participation in external culture surveys by the Human Rights Campaign, which previously recognized Ford for LGBTQ+ equality.

The move follows pressure from right-wing activist Robby Starbuck and aligns with broader trends among companies adjusting or scaling back their DEI initiatives, CNN has reported.

The Human Rights Campaign criticized Ford for abandoning inclusive policies, warning of potential long-term consequences.
