NBAA Issues Statement On Nomination Of Erroll Southers Nomination For TSA Post

Southers Is President Obama's Pick For TSA Assistant Secretary

National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) President and CEO Ed Bolen (pictured) Friday issued the following statement regarding an announcement by the Department of Homeland Security that President Obama intends to nominate Erroll Southers for assistant secretary of TSA.

His statement, in full, reads:

"As we mark the eighth anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, we know that security must remain a top priority, especially in aviation," said Bolen. "Since the TSA's inception, NBAA and its Members have continually reached out to the agency and advocated for policies that enhance security without restricting mobility. As the White House prepares to submit this nomination, the business aviation community has a number of very important concerns before the TSA. We will be closely monitoring the progress of Mr. Southers' nomination, and working to ensure that he has a full understanding of the unique operating needs of our Members."
