Boeing supplier Spirit AeroSystems filed a lawsuit against Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton after he opened an investigation into the company's safety standards.
The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is investigating claims from another Boeing whistleblower who said the company overlooked safety concerns.
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has launched an investigation into Spirit Aerosystems, a large supplier to Boeing, after recurrent mishaps have occurred with airplane parts. Paxton’s investigation follows a series of costly and sometimes deadly accidents involving Boeing aircraft. In 2018 and 2019, 737s crashed in Indonesia and Ethiopia repeatedly, killing a total 346 people.
United States District Judge James Wesley Hendrix of the Northern District of Texas said the House of Representatives improperly passed a $1.7 trillion spending bill.
