“Modernizing the nation’s air traffic control system is long overdue and a necessity for the future of American aviation and the safety of the system.  Americans need and deserve a state-of-the-art air traffic control system and we look forward to working with our congressional colleagues and Secretary Duffy to achieve that goal.  We cannot afford to delay any longer.”
