flag The NTSB opposes a defense bill provision that would weaken safety rules after a 2024 crash, warning it could endanger flights.

flag The NTSB, led by Chair Jennifer Homendy, has strongly opposed a provision in the 2025 National Defense Authorization Act that would roll back safety measures following the January 2024 mid-air collision near Reagan National Airport that killed 67 people. flag Homendy called the provision a "safety whitewash" and warned it would recreate dangerous conditions, noting the agency was not consulted during drafting. flag The bill would allow military aircraft to operate under outdated rules, potentially avoiding mandatory ADS-B tracking technology. flag Critics, including senators and victims’ families, urge adoption of the bipartisan ROTOR Act to require modern tracking for all aircraft and reduce military exemptions.
