Environment/Superfund ENV

Met with Senate Finanace and Environment and Public Works Committees to discuss climate change legislation (that had not yet been introduced) and how air carriers may be impacted. We advocated for a carbon tax vs. a cap and trade policy for aviation and suggested the industry could do better if funds from a climate change bill went back into aviation.
