Moran Speaks on Senate Floor Regarding Bipartisan, Bicameral Agreement on a Long-Term FAA Reauthorization | 2024-05-01 | 2024 | 2024-05 | Republican | Senate | KS | Jerry Moran | M000934 | www.moran.senate.gov | moran | https://www.moran.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/news-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) – the ranking member of the Commerce Subcommittee on Aviation Safety, Operations, and Innovation – today spoke on the Senate Floor regarding the bipartisan, bicameral agreement on a long-term reauthorization for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024 was introduced by Sen. Moran and the leaders of the Senate Committee on Commerce, Sens. Maria Cantwell (D-Wash.), Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Tammy Duckworth (D-Ill.). “We have worked hard to bring the FAA and aviation community together to make certain that we do not end up with a result of one more extension after extension and provide some certainty the FAA can fulfill its mission,” said Sen. Moran. “When I became Ranking Member of the Aviation Subcommittee, I stated the importance in passing a long-term reauthorization and pledged to work with Sens. Duckworth, Cruz and Cantwell, as well as my other colleagues on the Commerce Committee, to get a comprehensive agreement completed.” “Continuous short-term extensions are detrimental to the agency, industry and the flying public,” continued Sen. Moran. “This week and next week, Congress must come together to ensure our current extension of the Federal Aviation Administration – which is until May 10 – will be our last. If the United States is to remain a leader in the aviation and aerospace domain, it is critical we provide the FAA the resources and tools they require. Recent incidents indicate now, more than ever, our aviation system needs certainty, stability, and that is provided, in part, by a long-term reauthorization from Congress.” “Our bill provides critical safety enhancements, grows America’s aviation workforce, invests in infrastructure at airports in urban and rural communities, sets clear priorities for advancing innovative aviation solutions, improves the flying public’s travel experience, and ensures a healthy general aviation sector for years to come,” said Sen. Moran. “I thank my colleagues on the committee for working to accomplish this moment, and I look forward to the vote that takes place a little later today. I encourage my colleagues to work hard to see that we get this completed in the next few days.” Click HERE to Watch Sen. Moran’s Full Remarks # # # | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:12:30Z |
