Travel Industry Launches Campaign to Secure Pay for Federal Aviation Workers During Shutdowns
A coalition of major travel industry groups has launched a campaign urging Congress to ensure federal aviation workers are paid during government shutdowns. Organizations including the U.S. Travel Association and the American Society of Travel Advisors are leading the push. They are advocating for legislation that would guarantee uninterrupted pay for essential employees at the FAA and TSA. The campaign emphasizes that these workers are critical for maintaining the safety and efficiency of the U.S. air travel system. Failing to pay them, the groups argue, could lead to significant travel disruptions and negatively impact the national economy.
