Restricting Charter Flights for Transportation Secretary Until FAA Funding is Secured.

This bill temporarily bans the Secretary of Transportation from using private charter air travel. This restriction remains in place until Congress passes a law authorizing funding for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for fiscal year 2024. The measure aims to pressure Congress to quickly secure essential funding for air infrastructure, which affects the safety and efficiency of air travel for the public.
Key points
The Secretary of Transportation must use commercial flights instead of expensive private charters.
The travel restriction is a tool to push Congress to approve the budget for the aviation oversight agency (FAA).
