He also said that during any national security emergency, privatization could hamper communication between air traffic controllers and the Department of Defense. …

He obviously has no idea how that communication takes place. Completely grasping at straws.

I'm retired after 31 years with Verizonbusiness (formerly MCI, then WorldCom). As a senior technician I was well aware that in a national emergency we would have been placed under national control.

Notwithstanding that, I was proud that I was able to work seemingly endless overtime hours after 9/11 to get American Express back in service with emergency reroutes when they were forced to evacuate their headquarters.
