Texas Attorney General Paxton has demanded DEI documents from a Boeing supplier as part of his investigation into safety problem
By NewsHound Ellen March 30, 2024
Fresh from wriggling out of federal securities fraud charges with a mere slap on the wrist, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton seems bent on a new round of MAGA mischief. As The Daily Beast reported, Paxton is claiming that part of his investigation into manufacturing defects at Boeing supplier Spirit AeroSystems Holdings, Inc. involves a demand for documents related to the company's diversity, equity and inclusion commitments and whether those commitments are unlawful or are compromising the company's manufacturing processes.
Translation: Paxton seeks to blame affirmative action, i.e. too much catering to minorities, for safety problems. The Daily Beast noted that Some right-wing figures have sought to link DEI efforts with various safety incidents in the U.S. aviation industry. They've also tried to blame DEI for the Francis Scott Key Bridge tragedy.
In other words, DEI is now code for Black and/or "minorities" in MAGA world.
