<p>As companies navigate a politically charged climate in 2024, many are scaling back their DEI initiatives. While many Fortune 1000 companies committed to DEI after George Floyd’s death in 2020, major corporations like Google, Meta, Lowes, Tractor Supply and Ford are retreating amid conservative pressures and economic concerns. However, DEI advocates argue the pullback is overstated, with many executives still prioritizing diversity. Despite challenges, most companies recognize DEI’s long-term value.</p>

<p>Cars once promised independence and transportation for all Americans. Now, they are a luxury product that cost about $50,000, nearly 30% higher than just a few years ago. Affordable vehicles, especially those below the price of $20,000, have nearly disappeared. And while Automakers pulled in record profits in 2023, slim margins combined with deep investments into EV batteries, software and other technology is making it hard to produce cars much cheaper. Chinese automakers can, but they&#8217;re impeded by tariffs and rules. Insiders say that is just a bandage &#8211; automakers need to compete.</p>

<p>President-elect Donald Trump, is set to inherit the world’s leading economy. On the campaign trail, he offered many ideas for the future. One plan called for leaving about 93 million Americans off the hook for at least part of their income taxes. Trump has also called for tariffs of 10% to 20% on imports arriving in the U.S and a 60% to 100% tariff on Chinese goods. His plan to deport undocumented people could also have a far reaching economic impact. So, what’s in store now that Americans have cast their vote?</p>
