Statement of U.S. Sens. Warner & Kaine on the Slot and Perimeter Rules

Press Release

Date: April 27, 2023
Location: Washington, D.C.
Issues: Transportation Government Budget and Spending

"With the expansion of Metro access to Dulles, long-distance flights from the Washington region have never been more accessible or competitive. The slot and perimeter rules help to balance consistent world-class aviation services at the region's three major airports, which has in turn allowed for billions of dollars in private-sector capital investment in the metropolitan Washington area. As Congress prepares to reauthorize the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), we will strongly oppose any efforts to disrupt or undermine the balance between Dulles and National, an airport one-fourteenth the size of Dulles."
