Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent(@SecScottBessent):Had Spirit Airlines been allowed to merge with Jet Blue, it would have given them much more resiliency. Thanks to @SenWarren, @PeteButtigieg, and all of their friends in the Biden Administration who backed their enthusiastic opposition to the Spirit-Jet Blue merger, dozens of regional airports will now lose service and thousands of jobs will now be lost.
