Aero-News Quote of the Day

“In developing this bill, the Committee held over 150 stakeholder meetings and six hearings since February. These hearings and meetings were productive, positive, and helped us improve our bill from last Congress. Support for this critical reform bill is growing, from Congress, aviation stakeholders, policy experts, and editorial and opinion pages from around the country. Historically, this is not a partisan issue, and it’s time to move forward with this bill for America’s taxpayers, America’s traveling public, and America’s lead in aviation.”
