WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The White House on Monday removed the vice chair of the National Transportation Safety Board, the latest in a series of dismissals by President Donald Trump from independent U.S. government agencies, sources told Reuters.
Alvin Brown, a Democrat who was the first-ever African American elected mayor of Jacksonville, Florida, was designated as vice chair in December by then President Joe Biden after he joined the five-member board in March 2024. Brown did not immediately return an email seeking comment. A White House official confirmed the departure.
