Lawmakers Highlight NATCA with State of Union Invites
Twelve members of the union, which was amongst the most vocal during the shutdown, are invited guests of lawmakers to State of the Union address.

A dozen National Air Traffic Controllers Association (NATCA) members are joining the guest list for this evening’s State of the Union address. Every member of Congress is permitted to invite one guest to the annual presidential address on Capitol Hill, and often these guests highlight national issues. The invitations to the ATC team follow the campaign NATCA waged to end the partial U.S. government shutdown, putting a spotlight on the stress controllers endured while working without pay.
