The bill would let the Federal Aviation Administration use money in the Airport and Airway Trust Fund that has not otherwise been appropriated if funding for a new fiscal year has not been enacted. The money could support FAA programs and activities funded in the prior fiscal year, at no higher than their prior-year funding rate. This temporary funding would end when a regular appropriation or continuing funding measure becomes law, or after 30 days, whichever comes first. Existing legal terms and conditions would still apply.
If enacted, the bill could allow certain FAA activities to continue temporarily during a lapse in appropriations. The text does not describe specific effects on travelers or airport users.
The bill does not provide a dollar amount. It would make available trust fund amounts that have not otherwise been appropriated, subject to the limits in the bill.
