SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) — Utah state lawmaker and Republican gubernatorial candidate Phil Lyman posted on social media Tuesday blaming the deadly bridge collapse disaster in Maryland on diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) efforts gone overboard.
Lyman (R-Blanding) reposted an X/Twitter a post from the Young Conservative Federation account that highlighted the profiles of a few commissioners of the Port of Baltimore, one of whom, a Black woman, was the founder of a DEI consulting business.
