U.S. Travel Association, Airlines for America, American Hotel & Lodging Association on House Passage of Senate Funding Measure

Following House passage of the Senate funding measure to keep the federal government open, leaders from the U.S. Travel Association, Airlines for America (A4A) and the American Hotel & Lodging Association (AHLA) issued the following statement:

“Today’s House vote is welcome progress, but travelers and the people who keep America moving have seen this movie before: another temporary fix, followed by more of the same uncertainty. Congress needs to deliver the annual appropriations bills and enact a lasting solution that ensures TSA officers and air traffic controllers are never again asked to work without pay due to a government shutdown. America’s travel system is too important to our economy—and to millions of travelers—to keep putting it at risk.”
