The company implements race and identity-based policies that replace merit, excellence, and integrity with preferential treatment and outcomes Danaher occasionally embraces corporate initiatives that redirect its central focus from business goals to partisan policies and divisive issues at times. This approach fails to safeguard free exercise, free speech, and free enterprise.
