This is really shocking stuff from Tractor Supply Company. This is a publicly traded company with over 2,000 locations across the U.S. My family spends a non-trivial amount of money there every year, but of course we'll now actively avoid them. The local farmers' co-op should get more of our business anyway. https://ir.tractorsupply.com/newsroom/news-releases/news-releases-details/2024/Tractor-Supply-Company-Statement/default.aspx

Going forward, we will ensure our activities and giving tie directly to our business. For instance, this means we will: 1. No longer submit data to the Human Rights Campaign 2. Refocus our Team Member Engagement Groups on mentoring, networking and supporting the business 3. Further focus on rural America priorities including ag education, animal welfare, veteran causes and being a good neighbor and stop sponsoring nonbusiness activities like pride festivals and voting campaigns 4. Eliminate DEI roles and retire our current DEI goals while still ensuring a respectful environment 5. Withdraw our carbon emission goals and focus on our land and water conservation efforts
