‘There Were 503 Lapses’: Kris Kobach Breaks Down Consequences of Hiring DEI in Aviation
1st February 2025
Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach appeared Thursday on Fox Business to discuss concerns regarding the diversity, equity, and inclusion hiring practices in the aviation industry.
An American Airlines passenger plane collided with a military helicopter near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday evening, resulting in fatalities for everyone involved. During an appearance on “The Bottom Line,” Kobach said DEI hiring increased operational errors in the air that resulted in hundreds of incidents.
“It’s too early to know if the air traffic controllers made any mistakes,” Kobach said.
