President Joe Biden’s Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is striving to enlist a diverse workforce through targeting certain demographics even as its air traffic control system is facing shortages and safety challenges.(Snip) Mountain States Legal Foundation sued on behalf of plaintiff Andrew Brigida and over 2,000 other air traffic controller applicants who had test scores invalidated due to former President Barack Obama’s 2015 FAA diversity policy intended to hire more minorities. The lawsuit became class-action certified in 2022.

Well, if they're anything like the newly hired checkers at my local grocery store, we are in deep doo-doo!

Soon the skies and runways at airports across the country will be like the Middle East, Afghanistan, Ukraine, NYC, Chicago, California, the supply chain, the economy, and the southern border, complete chaos and destruction. Everything this administration touches becomes a disaster. Every single thing.

Skin color is far more important than mere competence....right up until there are 350 bodies lying in a smoking hole.
Stop the madness.

How about throwing out the incompetent gay father?! Or is he on official diaper leave because this is the month diapers are being celebrated.

It appears the Bribem administration is using Part III of "Atlas Shrugged" as their blue print for domestic policy.

My grandson is in pilot training, and this worries me. Joe is an idiot.

There are some fields that must be merit based. Not everyone is suited for every position in a field of endeavor. Catastrophic consequences with loss of life for the sake of anything less is not only insane, it’s criminal.

It’s quite a feat when every single policy decision of this travesty of an administration is a complete disaster. What are the odds of that happening? Joe Biden is a disaster savant.

In addition to No. 12; to me this is just MORE proof that the ONE is telling the Bidet just what to do.
The ONE to you uninitiated is the Obama???
Also; anyone who does not understand that this once GREAT COUNTRY is being undermined by some group of conspirators is NOT reasoning properly!!! Just another of my humble opinions??!!!

My Uncle was employed by the CAA, which was later renamed the FAA, and retired from that once fine institution and must be spinning in his grave today. The FAA operates under one of the strictest and best Charters of all Federal entities, and has been protected from the oft times political madness attempted by their overlords, the NTSB. Two things need to be eliminated entirely from the Federal government, Color Conscious Hiring, and Civil Service Unions.

This is much worse than affirmative action physicians. They can only kill one person at a time and we can avoid using them. An affirmative action controller can kill while plane loads and we have no idea who they are.

Sounds like the FAA is discriminating in its hiring practices on the basis of race. There ought to be a law against that! Oh, wait…..

As a pilot who has certified an aircraft after building it, and flown my own aircraft all over this country many times for 30+ years, the best line I ever heard was a fellow pilot and aircraft builder who told me that he had heard what the FAA's motto was.
"We're not happy, 'till you're not happy." Yep, sounds about right. Some of the FAA people I worked with were sterling folks, genuinely working to keep everyone safe and minimize the 'friction' in the bureaucracy. Others are just bureaucrats, and "friction" is what they do, what they believe in and what they are. I've had a few friends in towers and in the enroute control centers, and the ones I knew were competent professionals.
Dumbing down the controllers absolutely WILL get people killed. This is as certain as the sun rising in the east.

Sounds like another Biden joke, take that from a Biden who will soon be in some 5 star rest home, as you board your flight and be guided by a person who was certified to be an air traffic controller based upon skin color, gender, or where they fit with LGBTQ or Democrat identity politics, who in a clinch can’t tell up from down!

Nope.... I have less than zero confidence in an air traffic controller given his/her/its position based on race or private parts.
