Through a union, TSA officers are empowered to improve work conditions and make air travel safer for passengers. With this sweeping, illegal directive, the Trump administration is retaliating against unions for challenging its unlawful Department of Government Efficiency actions against America’s federal workers in court.
While I agree the TSA is garbage, they have to exist at passenger airports because of the post-911 laws. Otherwise the Airport can’t function (legally). If the major airlines, and pilots, flight crew etc, just ignored the laws and operated anyway. Then sure things could be great, but that is a lot of individual risk that the pilots would have to take on as the consequences of their actions would be losing their pilot certification.
Anyway yea, they would all be fired Trump would try to pull a Reagan and then ???
