Toxic fume events on commercial planes are becoming more common, exposing passengers, flight attendants, and pilots to fuel, engine exhaust, de-icing fluid, and ozone in cabin air.
These exposures can cause serious health risks.
@RepMaxwellFrost, @RepChrisPappas, @APFAunity, and I are urging the FAA to adopt commonsense cabin air safety standards.
Today, we honor the courage of those who stood up at #Stonewall. Their fight for equality reminds us that progress is never given—it is won through #solidarity, courage, and collective action.
We remember. We honor. We continue the fight.
APFA stands in #solidarity with our #Union Siblings at @UNITEHEREPhilly.
Congratulations to the Workers at the Warwick Hotel Rittenhouse on today's contract victory. We stand with striking Workers at the Sheraton PHL Downtown as they continue their fight for fair contracts.
#Juneteenth commemorates the day in 1865 when Union troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, and announced freedom to enslaved African Americans—more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation took effect on January 1, 1863.
Thank you for the sacrifices you make, the challenges you navigate, and the care you show every day. Most importantly, thank you for keeping our passengers, our crews, and each other safe.
May 25, 1979, AA191, a DC-10 operating from Chicago to Los Angeles, crashed upon takeoff. Ten Flight Attendants, three Pilots, 258 passengers, and two people on the ground perished.
Today, we pause to remember those lost.
