Majority Leader Schumer Floor Remarks On The Need To Pass FAA Reauthorization

Washington, D.C. –  Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) today spoke on the Senate floor on the need to reauthorize the FAA. Below are Senator Schumer’s remarks, which can also be viewed here:

Today, the Senate will continue to move forward on FAA reauthorization.

We have just eight days to go before the current FAA authorization expires, so it will take bipartisan cooperation to get this done before the deadline.

Both parties have every reason in the world to get FAA done as quickly and smoothly as possible, to keep our skies safe, our airports safe, our federal employees taken care of.

I hope the Senate can come together to get this important legislation finished.
