It was reported last week that Nordstrom dropped Ivanka Trump’s product line from its stores, allegedly due to the brand’s poor performance.

Interestingly, it’s now been revealed that the department store issued a memo regarding Donald Trump’s Muslim refugee ban immediately before removing Ivanka’s products from its inventory.

The memo tells of how Nordstrom’s founder, John W. Nordstrom, was himself an immigrant, and that the diversity of their staff “brings a richness” to the company:

“When John W. Nordstrom came to the U.S. as an immigrant, he was given opportunities that allowed him to find a more prosperous and happy life. In so many ways, our humble beginning and the work ethic and gratitude that goes with it helped shape the culture of our company to this day. Over 116 years we have been fortunate to be able to build on the foundation JWN laid for us, thanks to all of you who have chosen to bring your unique experiences and backgrounds to work here at Nordstrom every day. We currently employ more than 76,000 people who comprise different races, ethnicities and genders. We literally have thousands of employees who are first and second generation immigrants. Every one of your unique qualities brings a richness that allows us to better reflect and serve the multi-cultured communities we’re a part of and ultimately makes us a better company. We are a better place with you here, no doubt about it.

It’s important that we reiterate our values to all of you and make it clear that we support each of our employees. We will continue to value diversity, inclusion, respect, and kindness… you can count on that.”
