Travel Tech thanks Chairman @RepSamGraves and Ranking Member @RepRickLarsen from @TransportGOP and @TransportDems for their support on H.R. 6086, the Aviation Funding Solvency Act.
During tomorrow’s Committee markup hearing, Travel Tech supports this legislation that would allow the @FAANews to continue paying air traffic controllers and maintain core FAA operations during a lapse in appropriations.

Thank you @RepBurgessOwens and @RepRickLarsen for your leadership on the introduction of the Transportation Assistance Olympic and World Cup Cities Act, ensuring U.S. host cities are supported ahead of these major sporting events.
As the host of the 2002 Winter Olympics, Utah knows how to welcome the world - and we’re getting ready to do it again in 2034.
Proud to lead the Transportation Assistance for Olympic and World Cup Cities Act with @RepRickLarsen to help host cities across America plan and deliver world-class transportation for major global events.

Travel Tech thanks @RepRonEstes for his continued leadership in combating discriminatory digital service taxes.
France continues to pursue a discriminatory tax that unfairly targets U.S. innovators – hoping to collect American tax dollars for their own treasuries. Kansans shouldn’t be held responsible for filling France’s budgetary gaps, and the United States should have tax sovereignty. I led a letter with my colleagues to President Trump outlining the issues and solutions to protect U.S. taxpayers.

Thank you @RepDinaTitus for your continued leadership on the ACPAC Modernization Act!
By giving ticket agents a seat at the table, the @USDOT will be able to expand its industry knowledge base and improve the quality of its recommendations, ultimately benefiting consumers.
Ticket agents, including the 121 companies and 2,230 travel advisors in Nevada, facilitate half of all ticket sales across the country to consumers, playing a critical role in Las Vegas’s tourism industry.
I am proud to reintroduce the ACPAC Modernization Act which will help @USDOT better protect travelers’ interests by adding a valuable new dimension to ACPAC’s work. It also will provide more transparency in the federal decision-making process that impacts the consumer experience.
