Duffy, airlines push Congress for $30 billion aviation overhaul
Original: Duffy, airlines urge US Congress to quickly approve $30 billion for aviation reforms
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, together with US airlines, is calling on Congress to quickly approve roughly $30 billion in funding for aviation reforms. The push centres on modernising the country's air traffic control system and related infrastructure. The joint appeal from the government and airline industry puts pressure on lawmakers to act on aviation funding in the current legislative session.
Why now: Lawmakers are being pressed to fund long-delayed upgrades to the US air traffic control system amid growing concerns over air travel reliability.
