In 2014, under President Barack Obama, the FAA introduced a Biographical Assessment test designed to help qualified candidates without aviation experience land jobs in air traffic control.

Four years later, during Trump’s first administration, the FAA stopped using the biography test and required all applicants to take the Air Traffic Skills Assessment instead.

After Trump left office, President Joe Biden implemented broader DEI policies meant to create more opportunities for underrepresented groups to get work.

Trump and critics argue that DEI policies risk hiring under-qualified candidates to meet hiring initiatives.

The Thursday White House statement pointed to a New York Times report that found that “there were 503 air traffic control lapses that the F.A.A. preliminarily categorized as ‘significant’,” in 2023.
