T-Mobile Ends DEI, FCC Approves One Deal

News summary

T-Mobile has dismantled all Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives amid pressure from the Trump administration as it seeks FCC approval for two major deals: acquiring U.S. Cellular's wireless operations and forming a joint venture with KKR to acquire Metronet. The company informed FCC Chair Brendan Carr it will eliminate DEI roles, disband teams, and remove DEI references from its materials in alignment with federal policy. FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr welcomed the move, while Democratic Commissioner Anna Gomez criticized it as a tactic for regulatory favor. The decision follows similar actions by Verizon and reflects a broader rollback of DEI initiatives across corporate America. Shortly after T-Mobile’s announcement, the FCC approved one of its pending transactions. Former DEI staff will be reassigned to HR roles focused on culture and engagement.
