Trump admin rips Biden admin handling of air traffic control after FAA ground stop
"Under Biden, the FAA was focused on 'inclusive language' — like banning the term 'airman.' Even after the 2023 nationwide ground stop, they did absolutely nothing to address the problems plaguing ATC," read a post on the Rapid Response 47 X account on Saturday.
The Trump administration ripped former President Biden's Transportation Department over its handling of Air Traffic Control (ATC) following the Federal Aviation Administration's decision to order a ground stop on Friday.
"Under Biden, the FAA was focused on 'inclusive language' — like banning the term 'airman.' Even after the 2023 nationwide ground stop, they did absolutely nothing to address the problems plaguing ATC," read a post on the Rapid Response 47 X account on Saturday.
"That’s why for two years, the Trump Admin has been begging Congress to partner with us and finally get it DONE!" the account posted.
Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg responded to the ground stop and took a swipe at Trump's first administration.
"When we had an outage, I didn't stand there complaining about the Trump administration. We got to work," he said.
