Obama Admin Ordered DEI Prioritized for Hiring Air Traffic Controllers Nick R. Hamilton
March 4, 2025 – A new report has revealed former President Barack Obama’s administration ordered far-left “diversity, equity, and inclusion” (DEI) ideology to be made a priority in the criteria for the hiring of critical air traffic control (ATC) employees.
While the left is quick to blame President Donald Trump for the uptick in recent plane-related crashes and incidents, the real blame should be on the policies that led to the hiring of air traffic controllers who might not have made the cut otherwise.
According to the Daily Mail, the best and brightest air traffic controllers were likely swept aside in the name of DEI.
The report revealed that under the Obama administration, the questionnaire for ATC applicants was secretly skewed to favor DEI initiatives.
The form was “secretly” meant to favor DEI applicants in what the outlet described as a “bizarre” application.
Under the policies, highly qualified and experienced candidates were rejected due to the color of their skin, gender, or sexuality.
Instead of the most skilled and smartest applicants taking the helm in towers across the United States, which is paramount to airline safety, the Obama administration placed DEI at the top of the priority list.
In many cases, underqualified candidates were employed for key positions because they helped meet a quota for DEI hires.
The test was scary, to say the least.
In addition, the program placed emphasis on random qualities while ignoring key criteria such as experience in the job.
Potential applicants didn’t need much in the way of aviation knowledge, but an emphasis was placed on those who “need a great deal of time to complete assignments” and “take chances very often.”
Making matters worse, emphasis and priority were placed on candidates who played multiple sports in high school and less priority on those who previously held ATC positions in the military.
The Daily Mail noted
“The 2014 entry test proved notoriously hard to pass for elite, mostly white college graduates who excelled in traditional cognitive tests.
“But race reformers said it paved the way for more ‘off the street’ hires – namely women and minorities – to land high stakes jobs responsible for the lives of millions of air passengers.”
One aviation expert told the outlet, “Bonkers is the right word for this.”
They added, “It’s absolute madness to think that you want to hire someone who takes a lot of chances to be an air traffic controller.”
The Daily Mail noted:
“The test comes to light as the Federal Aviation Administration grapples with a public safety crisis after a spate of deadly crashes and collisions that President Donald Trump has blamed on DEI hiring.”
Users across social media reacted to the bombshell revelations.
“DEI is just stupid insanity!” one X user wrote.
