2012 update for FAA Reauthorization

GBTA Continues to Push for FAA Re authorization and NextGen – Good Hill Meeting Today: Mike McCormick met with key staff for the Senate Commerce Committee urging strong funding for the FAA and NextGen. With the current FAA Reauthorization expiring on January 31, he urged passage of a long-term reauthorization to allow FAA funding of key projects to modernize the air traffic control system – meaning fewer flight delays, fewer ground delays and shorter flights for busy business travelers. He also spoke about the value of business travel to the U.S. economy and the recent GBTA BTQ. Valuable insight gained. Meetings with key staff for House of Representatives committees to follow.
