  House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-LA) created another explanation for why authorities were unable to thwart the New Year's Day carnage in New Orleans: diversity, equity and inclusion, or DEI, initiatives.

The article from MSN discusses comments made by GOP House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, who suggested that Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives might be to blame for a recent attack in New Orleans. This incident involved a shooting at a Mardi Gras parade, where a suspect allegedly fired into a crowd, injuring several people. Scalise, speaking on Fox News, implied that the focus on DEI could be diverting attention from essential law enforcement and safety measures, potentially leading to such violent outbreaks. His remarks have sparked a debate about the role of DEI programs in public safety and whether they detract from or contribute to community security. Critics argue that Scalise's comments oversimplify complex issues of crime and community relations, potentially using the tragedy to advance a political narrative against DEI efforts.
