Unfortunately H.R 2997 has made it out of committee and could soon be headed to the House floor for a full vote. This legislation contains provisions for privatizing ATC, proposing to strip control of aviation-system oversight from the public’s elected representatives, and essentially hand control of the system over to a group of private parties, largely unaccountable to Congress. 

Your WAA Board of Directors asks you to please contact congress and oppose H.R.2997.
