Texas AG Investigates Boeing Supplier Spirit Over 737 MAX Manufacturing Defects, Links to Diversity Policies

Texas AG Ken Paxton is investigating Boeing supplier Spirit AeroSystems over manufacturing defects in 737 MAX planes that led to crashes.

Paxton also questions whether Spirit's diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies contributed to poor manufacturing quality.

There have been recent incidents of parts installed incorrectly on Boeing planes made by Spirit.

Reporting suggests Boeing has prioritized short-term profits over engineering quality and safety.

Paxton joins conservatives blaming diversity initiatives and hiring policies for drops in corporate quality.
