CEO of One of America's Largest Transit Systems Quits Over Green Card Issue

The CEO of one of the largest transit systems in the U.S. has had to step down from his position after he was unable to get a green card in time to continue working.
Collie Greenwood, the chief executive of the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority, and a Canadian citizen, was forced to take early retirement after his Employment Authorization Document expired in June.
Bloomberg have reported that a replacement green card, which would have allowed Greenwood to continue working in the U.S., did not arrive in time to allow the CEO to continue his work.
In a statement reported by Fox Atlanta, Greenwood said, "My wife and I have decided this is a good opportunity to take an early retirement and spend more time with our family and friends."
"I do want to thank the board, the executive leadership team, and everyone at MARTA for their support and their continued work to improve and grow transit service in this region."

ServiceNow's acquisition of Moveworks is reportedly being reviewed over antitrust concerns
ServiceNow's acquisition of enterprise AI startup Moveworks is reportedly drawing regulatory scrutiny. The acquisition is currently under review for antitrust by the U.S. Justice Department, according to Bloomberg, which cited sources familiar with the matter. The probe began in June, Bloomberg reported, and both companies have since received a 'second request' calling for additional information that has to be provided before the deal can move forward. ServiceNow announced it was acquiring Moveworks for $2.85 billion in March. At the time, ServiceNow predicted the deal would close in the second half of 2025. Moveworks declined to comment. TechCrunch has reached out to ServiceNow for more information and will update the article if the company responds.
