What this amendment would do

SA 2847 is an amendment proposed by Mr. Warner to change how certain funds are used and allocated. Its main purpose is to provide money for aviation safety improvements and other specific needs.

The amendment aims to add the following to the bill:

  • Funding Allocation: It appropriates $63,000,000 to the Secretary of Transportation for fiscal year 2025, to be available until September 30, 2029.

  • Specific Purposes: This money is intended for:

    • Implementing safety recommendations from the National Transportation Safety Board and the Secretary regarding the mid-air collision on January 29, 2025, involving American Airlines Flight 5342 and United States Army Aviation Brigade Priority Air Transport 25.
    • Establishing and maintaining a permanent memorial for the victims of that collision.
    • Projects related to the safety and security of airports under the Airports Authority, with a priority on improving safety for flight services at Ronald Reagan Washington Airport, including non-stop Part 121 flight service to a specific list of localities across various states.

  • Funding Reductions: To account for these changes, the amendment reduces other funding amounts:

    • Changes a figure from $9,995,000,000 to $9,910,000,000.
    • Changes a figure from $1,000,000,000 to $915,000,000.
