Appeals court dismisses objection to Pfizer’s diversity-focused fellowship program | |
The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a previous court’s decision, dismissing a lawsuit against Pfizer’s fellowship program brought by the organization Do No Harm. The organization, which opposes the integration of identity politics into healthcare, claimed that the fellowship program illegally excluded White and Asian American applicants, violating state and federal laws. Pfizer’s Breakthrough fellowship specifically targets advancing students and early career professionals of Black/African American, Latino/Hispanic, and Native American descent. Do No Harm’s legal challenge was rejected because it failed to present any individual by name who was directly harmed by the fellowship’s eligibility criteria. This case is part of a broader discussion on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives and their legal implications. There have been increasing claims and legal actions against DEI policies, including a recent worker complaint alleging anti-White sentiment and bias against DEI policies by a potential employer. Similarly, Nasdaq’s board diversity rule, which mandates listed companies to have directors from diverse backgrounds, faces legal challenges.
