These policies are in compliance with 60 years of US federal law. These policies are in compliance with 60 years of US federal case law. There policies are in compliance with 60 years of executive branch policy/guidance. The executive branch can not change established law nor case law. The executive branch can not change executive branch policies in an 'arbitrary and capricious' manner. These are the guardrails to stability that allow our nation to function, our stock markets to attract overseas investment, and our currency to be the worlds reserve currency. That these 'executives' would rather jeopardize all of the above for expediency/deference from a newly elected President says quite a lot. There are no guardrails when everyone abandons them proactively. And when there are no guardrails there is not stability. And when there is no stability there is no business investment.

This internet comment has a lot of conviction, but my experience differs. A company I once worked for "asked" me and others EM's to fast-track hiring African American engineers to meet an internal diversity quota. The company didn't write this policy on paper and kept it strictly verbal for fear of legal consequences. In any case, Affirmative Action has recently been struck down by the Supreme Court so I doubt similar racial-discriminatory policies will hold up.

  Everything I wrote is true and is how our nation works, both legally and as a successful country. It is what has lead to us being the number one economy on earth. But I see instead of facts you went with the old in 'my experience...' internet comment. Did you challenge them in court? Or did you just give up in advance? You saying these written policies should be given up because of secret policies used nefariously (not the ones in question)? Shouldn't it be the secret policies that are challenged? Should we get rid of Trump because he said no project 2025 yet in the first few days implemented a crap ton of project 2025 appearing to have 'secret policies'? There is nothing to hold up in court if every company just gives in and leaves 60 years of norms behind in one day. If you don't see that or don't care you are putting politics over what has made the USA great. No tyrants jerking policy at their whims. Instead established and protected norms providing a stable country. Look at successful software frameworks and how they are maintained. Much differently than how a company is operates. Frameworks (including social frameworks) need stabilit to work.
