NACA Mourns Passing of Chairman Bud Shuster

In response to reports of the passing of House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Chairman Bud Shuster (R-Penn.), National Air Carrier Association President and CEO George Novak issued the following statement:


On behalf of all of NACA’s members, we are saddened to learn of the passing of former House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Chairman Bud Shuster. During his 28-year tenure representing Pennsylvania’s 9th congressional district, Chairman Shuster passed several major aviation and other transportation infrastructure bills with overwhelming bipartisan support  a rarity in today’s highly partisan environment in Washington.
 
To this day, millions of Americans are benefiting from the aviation systems, highways, ports, and rail and water projects that resulted from his unprecedented ability to bring Republicans and Democrats together in support of the nation’s infrastructure. We express our condolences and prayers to Chairman Shuster’s entire family, including his son, former Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Chairman Bill Shuster.
