Trail of regret: REI retreats from support of Trump’s Interior head Burgum
REI has apologized for its previous endorsement of Doug Burgum as Interior Secretary, citing concerns over his direction of the department and its impact on public lands. The company now pledges to pressure the Interior Department for transparency and advocate against the sell-off of federal lands. This reversal reflects a broader trend of corporate disillusionment with the Trump administration's policies.
