President Donald Trump has fired a third member of the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) Board of Directors. Beth Geer, one of six people nominated to the board by President Joe Biden in 2023, was dismissed, according to a report TVA filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on June 10. Trump previously removed Biden appointees Michelle Moore in March and Board Chair Joe Ritch in April. The board, now reduced to three members from its usual nine, will continue meeting to ensure TVA operations continue for its 10 million customers across seven Southeastern states, Knox News reports. Trump has not publicly given a reason for the firings or announced replacement nominees yet.
