✅The NTSB Reauthorization is Headed to the President’s Desk!
@NTSB
investigations are key to improving transportation safety. That’s why the reauthorization legislation provides the agency with more resources and tools to fully support its critical work.
Getting more skilled, well-trained air traffic controllers on the job will keep us safe when we’re thousands of feet in the air, prevent delays, and keep flights on time. Proud to secure these critical resources and more for Ohio airports.
My Small Community Air Service Enhancement Act cleared the Senate to help get Montana airports more flights that cost less. This measure will ensure our rural airports don't fall through the cracks so that communities large and small have the options they need to stay connected.
The bill “gives the FAA the stability it needs to fulfill its primary mission — advancing aviation safety — while also making travel more convenient and accessible,” said Senate Commerce Committee Chairwoman
