Meanwhile in the Senate Commerce Committee.....
A bipartisan group of Senate Commerce Committee Members have worked with stakeholders, constituents, airports, and community leaders to draft amendments to safely address the pilot shortage. Yet, Committee Majority Leadership won’t even allow consideration of these amendments because the Airline Pilot Association (ALPA) and the Senate Majority Leader (D) oppose them. Today, RAA President and CEO Faye Malarkey Black sent a letter to lawmakers urging consideration of these important amendments.
We can speculate on why ALPA doesn’t want to solve the pilot shortage. However, Senate leaders must ensure a labor union representing
the wealthiest work group in America does not exert undue influence on what can and cannot be considered by the U.S. Senate.
