The question

Is Dollar General gay?

Yes.

Dollar General's code explicitly prohibits sexual-orientation and gender-identity discrimination. The current governance page identifies its 2023 substantive revision and describes subsequent changes as administrative and non-substantive, supporting continued applicability.
