Senate Appropriators Move To Block ATC Reform Proposal
FAA would receive well over $500 million in additional funding under the Senate version of the fiscal 2018 transportation appropriations bill.

The full U.S. Senate Appropriations Committee tomorrow is set to consider a Fiscal Year 2018 transportation budget bill that would provide a $500 million boost to the FAA’s annual budget and block the Trump Administration from creating an independent organization to run the nation’s air traffic control. Appropriations Committee consideration follows approval of the FY2018 Transportation and Housing and Urban Development (THUD) appropriations bill by the THUD subcommittee yesterday.
