Transportation Sec. Duffy: Air Traffic Controllers Retiring Too Soon

Too many air traffic controllers are retiring after 25 years of service, contributing to the ongoing shortages at the nation’s airports, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said Wednesday.

“Is this a national security issue?” Duffy said in an interview with Fox Business. “Is this a safety issue? And should these air traffic controllers be retiring after 25 years of service?”

Keeping the air traffic controllers on the job longer, said Duffy, may involve further calculations because of national security.
