Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy highlighted on Sunday some of the ways that the previous administration was focused on the wrong things inside the Department of Transportation.
Duffy made the remarks during an interview on CNN’s “State Of The Union” following two tragic plane crashes that happened last week.
Host Jake Tapper asked Duffy if DEI practices were in any way tied to the accident in Washington, D.C., where a military helicopter collided midair with a commercial passenger jet.
“So I do know that, in the last administration, they were focused on not safety, but they were focused on changing the name from cockpit to flight deck, or notice to airmen, they want to change it to notice to air mission,” Duffy said. “They focused on E.V.s and sustainability and racist roads, things that don’t matter in regard to safety.”
“Our mission since the start has been safety,” he said. “And they have lost that mission. And we see, when you don’t focus on safety and you focus on social justice or the environment, bad things happen.”
Duffy said that the department was going to assess all the ways that DEI has impacted the DOT and FAA and will release a report on it.
