Aviation earns a D+ in Infrastructure Report Card

March 28, 2025

Aviation infrastructure earned a D+ in the American Society of Civil Engineers Infrastructure Report Card due to slow modernization and a $114B funding gap over the next 10 years. Why continue with a tombstone mentality where every regulation is written in blood? Why must someone else die?

I had the opportunity to advocate for aviation safety on Capitol Hill yesterday with my ASCE colleagues and share my personal story of the plane crash that impacted my family. These losses are with us forever. No other family should suffer a tragedy like this.

My upcoming memoir 26 Seconds could not be more timely.
