McDonald's sued over Latino scholarship program days after ditching some DEI policies

McDonald's is being sued over a program that grants scholarships to Latino students, a move that came days after the fast-food giant ditched some of its diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies.

The American Alliance for Equal Rights, which challenges race-based preference and discrimination, alleges the McDonald's HACER program discriminates against certain high school students.

Last week, McDonald's said it would adjust some of its DEI policies, which critics have deemed "woke."
