NiW 2026: NATCA Activists Bring Grassroots Momentum to Capitol Hill

May 6, 2026

Today, hundreds of NATCA members are walking the halls of Congress, driven by a relentless commitment to the future of their profession. These activists are utilizing their ground-level expertise to ensure the perspective of the air traffic control workforce is a primary consideration in every congressional office.

This presence on the Hill is a testament to the dedication of safety professionals who choose to lead through direct action. The energy and conviction demonstrated today serve as the foundation of the Union's legislative strength. While these meetings take place in Washington, the mission to protect the National Airspace System is a year-round effort that requires the engagement of every member.

Thank you to the activists on the front lines today. Your voices are driving the movement forward.
