Walmart Inc. told employees that it’s weighing potential actions in response to the US Supreme Court’s ruling overturning the constitutional right to abortion.
The largest private employer in the US has been “listening to associates across our company, representing many different viewpoints,” Chief Executive Officer Doug McMillon said Friday in an internal memo. He promised more details as soon as possible, noting “time is of the essence” following the court’s decision a week ago.
“Understanding how you are feeling and how you’d like the company to respond is critical to informing our next steps,” McMillon told employees. “We are working thoughtfully and diligently to figure out the best path forward, guided by our desire to support our associates, all of our associates.”
