Back in DC for the annual ALPA Legislative summit, where we advocate for aviation safety and security. #ALPA2026Summit

Pilots, flight attendants, truckers, railroaders, and first responders work overtime too.

But many are excluded from the new overtime tax deduction because of outdated federal definitions.

Congress should fix this. Pass S. 4310

@LeehamNews @CaptBob_Nomadic Or they could have an unlimited number at mainline. It's UA's business decision not to.

@LeehamNews @CaptBob_Nomadic UAL has always been able to fly E2s... they just can't outsource pilot jobs to do it.

Thank you @RepTomBarrett for meeting with us this afternoon, and for a great discussion on aviation safety! #ALPA2025Summit

[Justin @j_ross83]

@RepHaleyStevens it was an honor to meet with you today! Thank you for your strong support of aviation safety, and for working to ensure aviation remains at the unprecedented level of safety we have achieved for more than a decade. #SafetyStartsWith2 #ALPA2024Summit

[Justin @j_ross83]

@RepDebDingell thank you for your unwavering support of aviation safety! @ALPAPilots are so grateful for your support of the FAA reauthorization and continued engagement to protect our passengers and crews. #SafetyStartsWith2 #ALPA2024Summit

[Justin @j_ross83]

“The most effective safety feature on any aircraft is the presence of two highly qualified & well-rested pilots on the flight deck…decreasing the flight deck crew on board is driven by the desire to cut costs at the expense of safety,” @ALPAPresident Capt. Jason Ambrosi said in a @WashingtonPost article on #ArtificialIntelligence https://t.co/yYV5tWdvs4

[Matt McNally @McNally4Indiana]

Thank you to the senators on both sides of the aisle opposed to reducing flight hour qualifications. Ten years ago, congress enacted flight hour requirements that have resulted in the safest decade in history for airline passengers. Those standards should remain. @ALPAPilots

[Air Line Pilots Association @ALPAPilots]

The Thune-Sinema amendment codifies a training regime that is unstructured and introduces an unacceptable risk to our air transportation system.

[Capt. Jason Ambrosi @ALPAPresident]

Thank you Acting FAA Administrator @PollyTrott for moving to implement this life-saving measure after years of needless delay. Now we must redouble our efforts to pass the Sarancini Enhanced Aviation Safety Act and work to install primary barriers on cargo aircraft.

.@SenateCommerce as a commercial airline pilot, I urge you to oppose S. 893 or any other legislative attempt to raise the mandatory retirement age for professional U.S. airline pilots above the age of 65. Increasing the retirement age will not increase the supply of #pilots.

[Andrew Olarte @andrew153LAS]

@AeroCrewNews Delta, American, United do not have any ‘domestic only’ fleets. Frequently trips can be interspersed with Canadian, Mexican, Caribbean destinations. Changing the rule would bring chaos to the status quo. Trips would have to be build for this age group only. Ridiculous.

[Air Line Pilots Association @ALPAPilots]

Today we sent a letter to the Senate urging opposition to the Thune amendment which is a poison pill amendment that undermines the current aviation safety regime that has resulted in the safest period in air travel in history. Read the full letter here: https://t.co/LltCsbT5ZT

[Air Line Pilots Association @ALPAPilots]

Today we sent @TransportGOP & @TransportDems a letter opposing its Securing Growth and Robust Leadership in American Aviation Act:

"ALPA prides itself in working in a bipartisan matter to advance aviation safety and the rights of workers. However, the decision to move forward with changing the statutory pilot retirement age is an anti-union poison pill. The rash decision to move an amendment on changing the statutory pilot retirement age, without consulting agencies responsible for safety, or studying potential impacts of such a change as has been done elsewhere is a politically driven choice that betrays a fundamental understanding of airline industry operations, the pilot profession, and safety."

@SenStabenow we are so thankful for the opportunity to visit your office and discuss two important issues: aviation safety and US jobs. Thank you for being a champion of both! #ALPA2023Summit

[Justin @j_ross83]

Yesterday, we had a great discussion with @SenGaryPeters and staff about aviation safety and US jobs. Thank you for your continued support as we strive to maintain the highest level of safety in aviation history! #ALPA2023Summit
