MLB scrubs references to ‘diversity’ from websiteLeague says ‘values on diversity remain unchanged’
Major League Baseball removed references to “diversity” from its MLB Careers home page following an executive order by US president Donald Trump that could lead to possible federal action against organizations using DEI programs in violation of his administration’s interpretation of civil rights law.
“Our values on diversity remain unchanged,” MLB said in a statement Friday. “We are in the process of evaluating our programs for any modifications to eligibility criteria that are needed to ensure our programs are compliant with federal law as they continue forward.”
