Trump's Administration Targets U.S. Nuclear Safety Board Amid Purge of Regulatory Agencies
President Trump's purge of senior officials continues as his administration targets key members of the U.S.'s nuclear safety board. The move raises concerns about the country's ability to regulate and monitor nuclear power plants.
President Trump's purges have targeted the US Nuclear Safety Board, leaving concerns about the nation's nuclear safety and security. The board's chairman has been removed, and several other senior officials have also been let go in a move widely seen as a power grab by the outgoing administration. Critics argue that this move undermines the board's ability to regulate nuclear facilities and protect public health. The actions are seen as part of Trump's broader effort to eliminate federal agencies and staff during his final months in office.
