Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy: Safety is the number one priority

Published | Video Starts at 02:10

Said, well, let's not let them go. Let's actually keep these controllers on the job as we bring new controllers in and get them certified. So I'm paying a 20% upfront cash bonus for every controller who can retire but doesn't. For every year they don't retire, we're going to pay them that bonus.
