Aviation

Congress is also in the midst of reauthorizing our aviation laws.  Much like our highways, our skies are clogged with planes of all shapes and sizes.

    The House has completed consideration of a measure that would update and modernize our aviation laws.  Broadly speaking, the intent of the measure is to update the air traffic control system from a ground-based radar system to satellite enabled technology similar to the GPS system prevalent in many of our cars. 

    I remain committed to working to modernize our aviation laws because of the impact that it has on our economy and quality of life, but also because of the vibrant and growing aviation community in North Carolina and its impact.
