WASHINGTON, April 23 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump intends to nominate a long-time business executive and government contracting expert to head the Transportation Security Administration, sources told Reuters Thursday.
Trump plans to tap David Cummins, a senior vice president of Serco North America who oversees its federal, state, and local government civilian customer portfolio. Earlier this month, Trump proposed privatizing much of TSA's operations and cutting nearly 10,000 employees.
