FY25 Member Day Hearing Instructions
Recent Activity
WASHINGTON – Today, the Full Committee met to consider the Fiscal Year 2024 subcommittee allocations. The measure was approved by the Committee with a vote of 33 to 27.
Members are required to post every Community Project Funding request online. Links to those public requests are included below in alphabetical order.
The subcommittee will come to order.
Today, we welcome testimony from the Honorable Billy Nolen, Acting Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration. Administrator Nolen, I understand that you will be leaving the FAA this summer, after serving both as FAA's chief safety officer and as the head of the agency during a critical and dynamic post-pandemic period.
We've seen air travel come roaring back to life, reaching pre-pandemic traffic far more quickly than anyone expected.
But these past several months have also been challenging, from near misses on our runways to the January outage of the Notice to Air Missions System (NOTAMs) that led to the first nationwide ground stop in more than 20 years.
By all accounts, your steady hand and safety expertise have served our nation well during this critical period. I know safety is your number one priority. It is also our number one priority.
Thank you, Chairman Cole and Ranking Member McGovern, for allowing me to testify on the Limit, Save, Grow Act.
I want to start by thanking Speaker McCarthy, Leader Scalise, Ways and Means Chairman Smith, and Budget Chairman Arrington for their hard work on this bill.
I hope the President will come to the table and work with us to ensure our nation does not default on our debt.
I want to highlight one very straightforward idea included in this package: to rescind funds that are not needed at this time and redirect them to other priorities.
For example, as much as $60 billion that was appropriated more than two years ago for COVID remains unspent.
Now that the national emergency is officially over, we should be able to take back those resources.
There is also no reason for the IRS to be holding on to billions of dollars for future years.
The subcommittee will come to order.
Today, we welcome testimony from the Honorable Pete Buttigieg, Secretary of the U.S. Department of Transportation. Thank you for appearing before us today and for your service.
Mr. Secretary, I appreciated our recent phone conversation about your visit to the FAA's Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center and the Will Rogers World Airport in Oklahoma City a few weeks ago. I'm glad you were able to see firsthand some of the critical transportation assets there are in Oklahoma. I look forward to discussing what more we can do in Oklahoma, given our unique geography, DOT facilities, and opportunities with other federal entities, like the Department of Defense.
