A fully reauthorized FAA with the powers, authorities, and direction included in H.R. 3935, will provide certainty to the industry.

Short-term extensions are anathema to all of these goals.

The absence of a long-term FAA reauthorization is a disservice to the agency and its hardworking employees.

Our organizations collectively represent the broad spectrum of the general aviation industry...

Reauthorizing the FAA in a timely matter is vital to the continuity of the U.S. aviation industry.

Thank you, Chairman Graves. It is good to be here with the Aviation Subcommittee.

The use of continual extensions not only creates uncertainty within the aviation industry.

We appreciate the significant focus on both of these areas in the Securing Growth and Robust Leadership in American Aviation Act and believe that the included provisions will improve aviation safety.

Further delays in the passage of a long-term reauthorization bill slow the implementation of these critical policies, which are necessary for the United States to retain and grow its role as the world leader in aviation.

We are grateful for the House-passed Securing Growth and Robust Leadership in American Aviation Act

Reauthorization of the FAA is Congress' critical tool for setting civil aviation on a long-term course to success.
