Vote on Biden's Pick to Run FAA Delayed
The fate of President Joe Biden's pick to run the Federal Aviation Administration is in doubt. The Senate Commerce Committee indefinitely postponed a scheduled vote on Denver International Airport CEO Phillip Washington, whose nomination has languished since Biden announced his choice July 2022. Major concerns were raised about the nominee's aviation industry experience. (www.usnews.com) More...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
I read the headline, then read the blurb up above. Before I went to read the article, my thought was: Republicans also not being happy with his being a minority. Unfortunately my thought was correct!
Playing politics out of your mama's basement, aren't we?
Might be a good idea to actually put somebody who knows something about aviation.
No mention in the article about the current acting FAA Admin Billy Nolen who would be an excellent Administrator. Link for more info on him and his background: https://bit.ly/3FOvlR1
Tester was and has been, very concerned about recent incidents. I would suspect his vote NO given his moderate stand. However, this should not be along partisan lines.... a poorly written one-sided article if you ask me.....it should amount to this individual's background and his inability to answer what I consider basic FAA knowledge.
Less than 2 years in aviation and Biden wants him to lead the FAA. It's a joke. This is Biden's diversity set to the PETER PRINCIPLE in spades!
