COMMITTEE ON APPROPRIATIONS (APPROPS)
WHY IS THIS COMMITTEE IMPORTANT TO NATCA?
This committee allocates funds from the Federal treasury to government agencies, including the FAA. Each year's
appropriations amounts are limited to the levels set by a Budget Resolution, or a compromise reached by leadership
in the House and Senate. THUD has specific jurisdiction over funding for the Department of Transportation and is
responsible for allocating funding for operations, personnel, equipment, and other programs at the FAA.
