The U.S. Senate yesterday passed H.R.1, a revised budget reconciliation bill that includes “several provisions to promote the growth, safety, and sustainability of U.S. aviation,” according to NBAA. An earlier version of the bill passed the House of Representatives on May 22, but the revised bill goes back to the House for a final vote by Friday.

The Senate version includes aviation items from the House version, which NBAA and more than 50 other aviation organizations support. Included is $12.8 billion to help pay for “transformation of the nation’s air traffic control technologies, facilities, and other infrastructure.” Another provision would permanently reinstate 100% bonus depreciation for new and preowned aircraft, the association noted.
