Walmart Shareholders Fail Racial Equity Audit Proposal for a Third Time

The third time was not the charm for United for Respect Education Fund. The non-profit filed a shareholder proposal asking Walmart to undergo a third-party, independent racial equity audit focused on analyzing the company's impact on Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) communities. Per the proposal, once completed, Walmart should share the results publicly on its website. More from Sourcing Journal Walmart to Bring Drone Delivery to Five Additional Cities Trump Lashes Out at Walmart, Says Retailer Should 'Eat the Tariffs' Walmart US Nearly Doubled Deliveries Made in Three Hours or Less 'Given its worker demographics and scale, we request Walmart assess its behavior through a racial equity lens to obtain a complete picture of how it contributes to, and could help dismantle, social and economic inequality,' the filers wrote in their proposal. 'A racial equity audit would help Walmart identify, remedy and avoid adverse impacts on nonwhite stakeholders, communities of color and long-term diversified shareholders. Failure to effectively address inequities in its operations exposes stakeholders, including employees, to unacceptable abuses and exposes Walmart to risks that may ultimately affect shareholder long-term value.' According to Walmart's 2024 Mid-Year Belonging Report, people of color make up 51 percent of its U.S. workforce. United for Respect Education Fund filed similar proposals in 2023 and 2024. But this time around, part of the importance for the group and its co-filers was the fact that Walmart, like several other major companies, announced late last year that it would roll back some of its diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) efforts in favor of a theme of 'belonging.' Ultimately, the filers' argument proved unsuccessful in swaying shareholders' minds. In 2023, the proposal garnered 18.1 percent of shareholder votes; in 2024, that proportion declined to 15.4 percent. This year, the proposal received 6.9 percent of shareholder votes, according to a vote result announcement from Walmart's Thursday shareholder meeting. That's down 8.5 percentage points from last year. Like in previous years, Walmart recommended shareholders vote against the proposal. 'The Board recommends shareholders vote against these proposals because we already disclose substantial information on our people strategies, providing information about our business rationale, key metrics, progress, Board oversight and approach to continuous improvement based on stakeholder feedback and results,' the company published in its 2025 proxy statement. Ahead of the vote, Bianca Agustin, co-executive director of United for Respect, told Sourcing Journal that the organization had hoped to see at least the same percentage of shareholder votes headed their way as last year. She had also hoped that the proposal would garner one-fifth of all shareholder votes, since many proxy advisers recommend a company open formal dialogue with shareholders proposing a change if their proposition receives at least 20 percent of the total vote. Ultimately, the filers saw neither of those outcomes come to fruition this year. Nonetheless, Agustin said she hoped the proposal would bring attention to Walmart's DEI-related decisioning in recent months. 'We [wanted] to basically give a referendum on Walmart's really, really opaque decision to roll back the DEI initiatives,' she told Sourcing Journal. 'We [wanted] to send a strong message to the company that stakeholders do not agree with their decision, and that…they have a responsibility to lead in this moment of political turmoil and division. Given the demographic of their workforce and the communities they operate in, that responsibility is enhanced for Walmart.' TaNeka Hightower, a Tennessee resident who is currently on medical leave from her role at Walmart, supported the non-profit and its co-filers in re-filing the proposal this year. She said she believes a racial equity audit would help answer questions about pay equity and would provide insight into broader employee concerns about their ability to move up within the company, the treatment they receive from upper management and more. 'If we were to do a racial equity audit, it would really give an insight as to the disparity between Black and Brown workers in comparison to others,' Hightower told Sourcing Journal. 'The people up top that are the ones benefiting from all the profits, while the people that are actually doing the work to get the profits in the store aren't able to live.'

Inside the newly remodeled Walmart Supercenter — one of 22 planned in Minnesota

Inside the newly remodeled Walmart Supercenter — one of 22 planned in Minnesota originally appeared on Bring Me The News. On Friday, Walmart unveiled a remodeled Supercenter in Blaine, one of many such refurbishments the company has planned for this year. The June 6 ribbon-cutting ceremony was accompanied by donations to local organizations, as well as the unveiling of the "Blaine Community Mural" designed by Minnesota-based artist Adam Turman, who has created commemorative artwork for the Minnesota State Fair and had a pop-up at the Mall of America last year. The upgrades at the 181,000-square-foot store, which originally opened at 11505 Ulysses St. NE in 2002, include new signage, expanded departments with new items, expanded online pickup and delivery space, a pharmacy refresh, and the addition of a "Mother's Room." The pharmacy update includes wider aisles, the addition of a private screening room, and private checkout areas. During the ribbon-cutting ceremony, Walmart announced donations to the Blaine Police Department ($3,000), the Alexandra House ($2,000), and the Blaine High School Baseball Dugout Club ($1,000). Last month, while reporting first-quarter profits, Walmart revealed that it has already raised prices on some products and plans to implement more price hikes in response to Trump administration tariffs. "I'm concerned that consumer[s are] going to start seeing higher prices," Chief Financial Officer John David Rainey said. "You'll begin to see that, likely towards the tail end of this month, and then certainly much more in June." Walmart isn't alone in hiking prices in what they say is a response to tariffs. Even Target has said that it's an option that's on the table. Though, Target CEO Brian Cornell called it a "last resort." Walmart's Blaine opening took place on the same day as the opening of a remodel at Walmart's Worthington location as well. The company says that 22 locations (none have been revealed) in Minnesota will get similar upgrades this story was originally reported by Bring Me The News on Jun 7, 2025, where it first appeared.

China Tariffs Already Mean Fewer, More Expensive Dolls for American Kids

Carly has auburn hair, blue eyes and stands 18 inches tall. Like most dolls sold in the U.S., she is made in China. That is now a problem for her maker, William Su, who sells tens of thousands of dolls and their accessories a year to Americans through Amazon, Walmart and Target. When President Trump raised tariffs on China to 145% in April, Su, who is based in New York and Taiwan, stopped production because he and his buyers couldn't afford the tariffs.
