Rep. Barry Moore rejects aviation bill that prioritizes pronouns over performance

Washington, D.C. — Today, Rep. Barry Moore voted in opposition to H.R. 3935, the Securing Growth and Robust Leadership in American Aviation Act. This legislation is supposed to be a five-year reauthorization of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)'s activities and programs, but this year's version focused on a diversity and climate agenda.

"Americans are tired of growing delays and flight cancellations," said Moore. "Prioritizing pronouns over performance will not fix these issues. We need to hire the most qualified people for the job. Several of my House Freedom Caucus colleagues introduced amendments that would have ensured this bill was focused on helping aviation workers rather than climate and diversity initiatives, but unfortunately those amendments were rejected."
