Amazon.com eliminated a reference to "inclusion and diversity" in its annual report filed on Thursday, after telling employees in December that it was winding down diversity programs as part of corporate America's broader retreat from such policies.

Big tech companies Meta Platforms and Alphabet’s Google are among the companies that have rolled back such programs in the face of attacks from conservative groups.
