A recent report by CNBC, coupled with a new oversight report, reveals that Google has excluded over 50 Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) groups from the list of organizations chosen for support by its U.S. Government Affairs and Public Policy team for the year 2024. Notably absent from this list are prominent groups such as the Latino Leadership Coalition and the American Civil Liberties Union of Illinois. This development signifies a significant shift in Google's approach to selecting organizations for funding.
