DHS assistant for the public affairs of Tricia McLaughlin discusses how Doge exposed a wasteful spending on a freelance migrant to the “bottom of the line”.
EXCLUSIVE: AND Homeland Security Department (DHS) says that the collective negotiation of transportation officers with transportation with the Transport Safety Directorate (TSA) ends.
In a statement received exclusively by Fox Business, DHS said that TSA has more people who work “in union work”, not that they perform probing functions at 86% of US airports.
This means that of 432 Federalized airports374 airports have less than 200 TSA officers to perform their probable functions. These officials are paid by the Government, but they work “full time on trade union issues” and do not retain certification for performing probable functions, DHS said.

The department has recently cited an employee of TSA employees, which found that more than 60% of “bad performers” could remain employed and “not surprising, still not acting”.
DHS said these circumstances interfered with the main responsibility of TSA “to protect our traffic systems and guard the Americans.”
DHS claimed that the removal of collective negotiations would make the airport more effectively removing “bureaucratic obstacles that would improve productivity and lower waiting time for passengers in security lines.”

“This action will ensure that Americans will have more effective and modernized [workforce] Through national transport networks – which means shorter waiting times at the airport. TSA renews its commitment to providing a quick and safe process of traveling Americans. ”
The US Federation of Government Employees, which represents TSOS, has encouraged DHS claims, saying that TSO -and volunteering as union representatives make up less than half of all working hours in TSA, with fewer unions representatives in the entire TSA in the number of total representatives to 86% of individual federal airports.
“47,000 transport safety officers appear at over 400 airports across the country every day to ensure that our sky is safe for air trips.

“They have given as a justification for completely fictional claims of union officials – the clear explanation of this action has nothing to do with the efficiency, security or homeland security. This is just an excuse to attack the rights of regular work Americans throughout the country, because it is happening to them that they belong to the union,” Kelley said. “Our union was ahead of the dispute of the illegal actions of this administration aimed at federal workers, both in legal courts and in the court of public opinion. Now our TSA officials pay the price with this clear retaliation proceedings.”
