Per ThorsheimUS gov asks european suppliers to guarantee they don't do DEI.
Next: we ask US to guarantee they do fair pay, 5 weeks paid annual vacation and 1 year paid maternity leave.
Rachel_CxY@thorsheim This is not true right? They cannot ask to actually be racist sexist transphobic homophobic whatever as a prerequisite for doing business?
Gurre Vildskägg@RachelC_Y @thorsheim well no, but they did demand everyone doing business with the US federal government stop any and all efforts to not be bigotted, racist, misogynistic, homophobic, transphobic, ableist, etc.
@Gurre @thorsheim Well that's bad enough 😭
@RachelC_Y First part is true. Companies in Norway, as in France and others, have received letters from American embassies about this.
The second part is wishful thinking / suggestion from me.
@thorsheim Oh for the second part, it was pretty obvious. But thanks for clarifying just in case.
Irina@RachelC_Y @thorsheim Apparently, they can. Because they do.
Woozle HypertwinThey can ask....
Hopefully the suppliers laugh them out of the marketplace.
