WASHINGTON, April 8 (Reuters) - Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said on Tuesday that he is still in talks with the White House on his plan to upgrade the aging, under-staffed U.S. air traffic control system after a series of high-profile safety incidents raised alarm.
Duffy told reporters that he is working with the White House Office of Management and Budget and the office is reviewing his estimate.
Duffy said last month that he planned to ask Congress for tens of billions of dollars for a multi-year effort to revamp Federal Aviation Administration air traffic control infrastructure and boost hiring.
