Government Executive: The Trump administration’s plan to privatize the nation’s air traffic control system moved forward in the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Tuesday, despite concerted opposition from Democratic members of Congress.
The committee approved the 21st Century Aviation Innovation, Reform and Reauthorization Act (H.R. 2997) 32-25, with all Democrats present voting in opposition. The measure reauthorizes the Federal Aviation Administration, and it transfers the agency’s air traffic control operations to a private nonprofit corporation.
