John Deere releases statement rejecting DEI policies: 'Committed to our customers'

John Deere announced it will be scuttling nearly all its diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) polices in favor of a quality-based workplace.

The major tractor company released a statement on its X account Tuesday saying that it will commit to prioritizing quality and customer trust over DEI initiatives.

"Our customers’ trust and confidence in us are of the utmost importance to everyone at John Deere. We fully intend to earn it every day and in every way we can," the post read, along with a full statement.
