              Hébert said that a small group of VCs are stepping up to help, but that there should be a more concerted effort.

             Even before Trump charged federal agencies with investigating "illegal DEI," companies began their retreat— dropping diversity promises, abandoning words like "equity." My teammates and I dug through 25,000 documents to show this in real time  https://t.co/vJanrSLhng
