"No State shall ... deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws"
Not only is the PSF not subject to this clause, the only subject to the clause are governments and the PSF is not even capable of violating it. In what way would DEI programs violate this clause?
This is completely wrong. The equal protection clause, and the constitution as a whole, describes the rights of individuals as well as the structure and limits of the government. Individuals and companies are, in a literal sense, completely incapable of violating the Constitution, unless they are acting on behalf of the government.
It's the same reason that you have absolutely no right to free speech in the workplace. The first amendment applies only to governments.
