FAA Bill En Route to President's Desk with Landslide House Vote
House passes five-year reauthorization bill by vote of 387-26
U.S. Capitol

The comprehensive, five-year FAA reauthorization bill sailed through the U.S. House of Representatives on Wednesday by a vote of 387 to 26 and now heads to the President’s desk for signature and enactment into law.

A bipartisan bill with strong endorsement by the Democrat and Republican leaders of the Senate Commerce and House Transportation and Infrastructure (T&I) Committees (who NBAA president and CEO Ed Bolen called the “four corners”), the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024 (H.R. 3935) also overwhelmingly passed the Senate last week by an 88-to-4 vote. Once House and Senate leaders rolled out the bill, it got held up only slightly in the Senate as many members looked to attach riders, but the chamber’s leadership ruled out non-germane measures, clearing the path to passage.
