The U.S. House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee (T&I) selected Rep. Troy Nehls (R-Texas) to chair its aviation subcommittee. In that role, Nehls succeeds former Rep. Garret Graves (R-Louisiana), who retired at the end of his congressional term last year.

A former law enforcement officer, Nehls has served in Congress since 2021. During that time, he has become involved in aviation issues, including introducing the Let Experienced Pilots Fly Act to raise the mandatory retirement age for airline pilots to 67.
