Duffy says Biden admin’s ‘wrong decision’ doomed Spirit Airlines, left 17,000 workers jobless

Spirit Airlines' sudden collapse has left thousands of passengers and employees scrambling, with the Trump administration blaming a blocked Biden-era merger for the airline's demise, which resulted in nearly 17,000 employees losing their jobs. The Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy argued that the Department of Justice should not have pursued litigation against the merger. The Biden administration and lawmakers have different opinions on the cause of Spirit Airlines' collapse.
