EXCLUSIVE: DEI continues to dominate the 2025 proxy season but shareholders are less willing to engage

Quick Summary:

Anti-DEI proposals have skyrocketed since 2023, but support remains extremely low.

Apple, Costco, and John Deere, for example, all dealt with high-profile resolutions on anti-DEI proposals this year.

And overall support from DEI proposals in general has dwindled from 36% in 2021 to around 16.5% in 2024.
