Airbnb has been named as a defendant in a lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware by The Heritage Foundation and American Conservative Values ETF. The complaint alleges that Airbnb improperly excluded certain shareholder proposals from its 2025 definitive proxy statement.

The conservative shareholder groups claim they submitted the proposals in December and provided proof of delivery, but Airbnb stated it had no record of receiving them. Airbnb disputes the characterizations and claims made in the complaint.

The company has offered to work with the shareholders to ensure their proposals are considered for inclusion at its 2026 shareholder meeting. This lawsuit highlights potential corporate governance issues and could draw further scrutiny to Airbnb's internal processes.
