WASHINGTON, March 7 (Reuters) - The Trump administration said Friday it is ending collective bargaining for more than 50,000 Transportation Security Administration officers that staff checkpoints at U.S. airports and other transportation hubs.
The Homeland Security Department said the move will remove bureaucratic hurdles, while the union representing workers did not immediately comment. President Donald Trump on Jan. 20 forced out the head of the TSA, whom he had named to the job in 2017.
