Air Traffic Control Workforce Development Act of 2025

Bill 119 s 697, also known as the Air Traffic Control Training Improvement Act, aims to make changes to title 49 of the United States Code in order to enhance training for air traffic controllers.

Overall, the Air Traffic Control Training Improvement Act seeks to modernize and enhance training for air traffic controllers in order to improve safety and efficiency in the nation's airspace. By implementing these changes, the bill aims to ensure that air traffic controllers are well-equipped to handle the demands of their important role in the aviation industry.
