Paxton Demands “Diversity” Docs From Boeing Supplier

Austin’s NBC affiliate reports:

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said he’s looking into a company that supplies parts to Boeing, and part of his investigation includes whether its diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) commitments factored into safety issues.

Paxton is asking Spirit AeroSystems for documents about DEI and “whether those commitments are unlawful or are compromising the company’s manufacturing processes,” according to a news release sent out Thursday.
