We are excited to launch Travel Tech’s Passport Podcast! Hosted by President and CEO Laura Chadwick and featuring industry experts, join us as we explore the intersection of travel, tech, and public policy.
We applaud @repdinatitus's leadership on modernizing @USDOT's Aviation Consumer Protection Advisory Committee and look forward to continued work with Congress to advance effective, consumer-focused travel policy.
Travel Tech thanks the members of the @TransportGOP and @TransportDems for advancing H.R. 5663, the ACPAC Modernization Act, and H.R. 6086, the Aviation Funding Solvency Act.
During tomorrow’s Committee markup hearing, Travel Tech supports this legislation that would allow the @FAANews to continue paying air traffic controllers and maintain core FAA operations during a lapse in appropriations.
As the House Transportation & Infrastructure Committee marks up the bill tomorrow, Travel Tech supports the effort to modernize @USDOT’s Aviation Consumer Protection Advisory Committee and include ticket agents, who have long been excluded despite their role in booking & refunds.
Following the introduction of H.R. 6128, the VISIT USA Act, legislation that would authorize a one-time transfer of $160 million from the Travel Promotion Fund to Brand USA, Travel Tech released a statement.

Thank you @RepBurgessOwens and @RepRickLarsen for your leadership on the introduction of the Transportation Assistance Olympic and World Cup Cities Act, ensuring U.S. host cities are supported ahead of these major sporting events.
As the host of the 2002 Winter Olympics, Utah knows how to welcome the world - and we’re getting ready to do it again in 2034.
Proud to lead the Transportation Assistance for Olympic and World Cup Cities Act with @RepRickLarsen to help host cities across America plan and deliver world-class transportation for major global events.

France continues to pursue a discriminatory tax that unfairly targets U.S. innovators – hoping to collect American tax dollars for their own treasuries. Kansans shouldn’t be held responsible for filling France’s budgetary gaps, and the United States should have tax sovereignty. I led a letter with my colleagues to President Trump outlining the issues and solutions to protect U.S. taxpayers.
In Travel Tech’s Passport Podcast's latest episode, Travel Tech’s Laura Chadwick and the @BlockchainAssn's Jessica Martinez explore the future of travel through the lens of stablecoin and the impact of cryptocurrency on the travel industry.
