Top Senate Transport Dem: FAA Has to Be More Aggressive on Oversight

On Friday’s broadcast of “CNN Newsroom,” Senate Commerce, Science, Transportation Committee Ranking Member Sen. Maria Cantwell (D-WA) stated that the FAA must engage in more aggressive oversight.

Cantwell said, “Well, the FAA has the ultimate authority to always monitor the flight paths and systems and say what is safe and what is operational. That rests with the FAA administrator. I hope we will get an FAA administrator very soon, because I thought Mike Whitaker was doing a good job at trying to address our safety issues, and now we don’t have an administrator.”
