What this amendment would do
This amendment would change how money is used from lease payments from Metropolitan Washington airports by appropriating $63,000,000 to the Secretary of Transportation for fiscal year 2025.
The money is intended to remain available until September 30, 2029, for specific purposes:
-
Implementing safety measure recommendations following the mid-air collision between American Airlines Flight 5342 and United States Army Aviation Brigade Priority Air Transport 25 on January 29, 2025.
-
Establishing and maintaining a permanent memorial for the victims of that collision.
-
Undertaking airport safety and security projects under the jurisdiction of the Airports Authority.
The Secretary must work with the Airports Authority to prioritize projects at Ronald Reagan Washington Airport that improve safety for non-stop Part 121 flight service connecting to several specific cities across various states.
The amendment also reduces other funding amounts previously established in the bill.
