Dear Private Pilot Insider readers,
The Co-Chairs of the U.S. House of Representatives General Aviation Caucus (GA Caucus), Congressmen Sam Graves (R-MO) and John Barrow (D-GA), both AOPA members, need your help. They are required to re-establish the Caucus in the new Congress and in so doing, they have to recruit Members to join all over again. The Caucus is a bipartisan group of Members of Congress who are interested in learning the importance of general aviation to our economy and transportation system.
We need a robust GA Caucus to fend of attacks on our freedom to fly. Last year we had 125 Members of the House GA Caucus and Congressmen Graves and Barrow want to surpass that number this Congress. They can’t do it without your help.
Please reach out to Representative Phil Gingrey M.D. at (202) 225-2931 and encourage him/her to join the GA Caucus to secure the future of General Aviation and the 1.3 million jobs and more than $150 billion it contributes to the U.S. economy annually.
Be sure to tell them that they can join the Caucus by contacting Mike Matousek (with Congressman Sam Graves) at 202-225-7041 or mike.matousek@mail.house.gov or Brandon Webb (with Congressman John Barrow) at 202-225-2823 or brandon.webb@mail.house.gov
Thank you for your action.
