AT&T scuttles DEI policies as FCC readies review of spectrum deal
AT&T has committed to drop its diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies just as federal regulators prepare to examine a spectrum transaction with EchoStar.
FCC Commissioner Anna Gomez criticized AT&T’s move, saying the company is trying to “curry favor” with a possible Trump administration ahead of the agency’s review. The timing raises questions about how large telecom operators may adjust internal policies to influence or anticipate regulatory outcomes.
