The impacted workers include personnel hired for FAA radar, landing and navigational aid maintenance, one air traffic controller told the Associated Press.
In the wake of a fatal plane crash near Washington, D.C., President Trump has initiated the dismissal of several Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) air traffic control employees. This action comes weeks after the incident, which has raised concerns about air traffic control procedures and safety. The dismissals are part of a broader review of the FAA's operations, focusing on enhancing safety measures and accountability within the agency. The crash, which resulted in the loss of life, has prompted a reevaluation of current protocols and has led to increased scrutiny on the performance and training of air traffic controllers. The Trump administration's move signals a strong response to public and political pressure for ensuring the safety of the national airspace.
