Anyone who cares about keeping their family safe should oppose this move and demand that it be reversed." @consumerreports.org advocacy via @thehill.com https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5292326-trump-fires-dems-cpsc-reports/09 May 2025 18:27 +0000at://did:plc:tvthhh3tw5gyedarztwwd4vf/app.bsky.feed.post/3lor2ivztbk24https://bsky.app/profile/wwconsumer.bsky.social/post/3lolnwamf722zThis is alarming. The NTSB is vital to the safety of the public and a member may be removed only for "inefficiency, neglect of duty, or malfeasance in office." If the president can remove board members arbitrarily, that puts the independence of NTSB investigations and recommendations at severe risk.
