Bill overview
The Mental Health in Aviation Act of 2025 aims to improve mental health support for pilots and air traffic controllers by requiring the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to update its regulations and policies. The bill directs the FAA to implement recommendations from a mental health task group and an aviation rulemaking committee, focusing on expanding access to mental health care, streamlining the special issuance process for medical certificates, and increasing the number of aviation medical examiners. It also authorizes a public awareness campaign to reduce stigma around seeking mental health services within the aviation industry.
