Trump fires member of TVA Board of Directors

Michelle Moore, Former TVA Director

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (WDEF) —  President Trump has fired a member of the TVA Board of Directors.

Michelle Moore had a year left on her term but is out immediately.

The firing follows a scathing article written by Senators Marsha Blackburn and Bill Hagerty about the Board.

They accuse TVA leadership on dragging their feet on new nuclear technology, even though they support the plan.

Moore and the remaining board members were nominated by President Joe Biden.

But they are now down to the minimum five members they need to meet a voting quorum.
