In the wake of the Potomac air disaster, recovery efforts have successfully retrieved all remains of the 67 victims from the collision. Investigations suggest that the helicopter may have operated above its permitted altitude. In unrelated news, the Trump administration has faced scrutiny over drastic measures affecting agencies like USAID and the Education Department, including putting staff on paid leave and offering buyouts that have affected 1% of the federal workforce. The situation raises questions about the implications for existing immigration policies and foreign positions under the current administration.
Recovery efforts have ended now that the remains of all 67 people aboard the two aircraft that collided over the river last week have been found.
The helicopter may have been traveling at higher altitude than permitted, the National Transportation Safety Board said Tuesday.
Lawmakers say Trump can't unilaterally gut the agency.
About 20,000 people have accepted buyouts. That's about 1 percent of the federal workforce.
