Big drop in Fortune 500 companies participating in the Corporate Equality Index, with a 65% plunge from 377 to 131. The Human Rights Campaigns index, which once demanded proof of LGBTQ-friendly policies, now sees a 30% drop in perfect scores. Companies like Regions Financial in Alabama saw their scores tank, signaling a regional trend. The data suggests companies rethinking the costs of ideological ratings, with tools like the Back to Business Tracker highlighting those stepping away and everyday folks having ways to push back through choices and accountability.
