Bill overview
This bill, the Continuity for Operators with Necessary Training Required for ATC Contract Towers Act of 2019, aims to provide continued benefits for retired Federal Aviation Administration air traffic controllers. Specifically, it exempts these controllers from having their retirement annuity payments reduced due to earnings from their participation in the Air Traffic Control Contract Program. This program allows the FAA to partner with private companies to provide air traffic control services. The bill modifies existing law to ensure these controllers maintain their full annuity payments while working under contract.
