                            of pennsylvania

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, July 18, 2023

  Mr. BOYLE of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I include in the Record a 
segment of the White House's Statement of Administration Policy in 
regard to Section 813 of the Securing Growth and Robust Leadership in 
American Aviation Act:

       Maintaining Safe and Secure Airspace During Major Sports 
     Events. While the Administration supports the goal of 
     providing accessibility to and public use of the national 
     airspace, it is concerned that provisions proposed in the 
     bill could introduce unnecessary risks to those attending 
     major sporting events if the effectiveness of safety and 
     security buffers currently provided by temporary flight 
     restrictions were to be decreased. To the extent that the 
     proposed provisions are intended to accommodate airshows, the 
     Administration urges the Congress to consider alternative 
     methods to deconflict airshows and major sports events rather 
     than potentially put aviation operations in close proximity 
     to events attended by millions of Americans each year.
