Amendment Introduced By Aviation Subcommittee Chairman Frank LoBiondo (R-NJ)
The Southwest Airlines Pilots' Association (SWAPA) is grateful for Chairman Frank LoBiondo's unwavering commitment to the American worker and the enforcement of our Open Skies Agreements. During debate of the FAA bill, known as the 21st Century AIRR Act (H.R. 2997), SWAPA Government Affairs and our Southwest Airlines counterparts, as well as many other domestic carriers and aviation labor unions, joined forces to support an amendment offered by Chairman LoBiondo of the Aviation Subcommittee, to fix the Department of Transportation's process for consideration of Foreign Air Carrier Permits.
