Fox5 DC ran an online poll yesterday asking area residents about more flights out of DCA. By a 2-1 margin, there was overwhelming support demonstrating yet again that @MarkWarner & @timkaine are sadly out of touch with where most Virginians are on this issue.
Are you a frequent flier? An outdated federal perimeter rule is limiting consumer choice & resulting in D.C. bound travelers burdened with the nation’s most expensive airfare. Join us in urging Congress to support bipartisan efforts to expand DCA access: bit.ly/4dbgXl5
Thank you, @SenatorCantwell & @SenTedCruz for standing up for consumers. It's time for the full House and Senate to stand with air travelers by supporting this bipartisan legislation when it comes to a vote before both chambers in the days ahead. capitalaccessalliance.com/capital-access…
Thank you, @SenatorCantwell & @SenTedCruz!
“Everyone watching this debate should recognize that the only reason some Members of Congress oppose these new flights is due to the fact they have chosen to place protecting the financial interests of one major airline ahead of protecting their own constituents’ pocketbooks.”
FACT: The perimeter rule results in @Reagan_Airport emitting the highest CO2 footprint per passenger among airports in the top U.S. metropolitan areas. It’s past time to modernize the 1960s perimeter rule and bring air travel into the 21st Century.
ICYMI: Northern Virginia business leaders are supporting additional flights at DCA, including W. Bruce Jennings, board member for the Northern Virginia Chamber of Commerce BizPac. Check out the growing momentum: capitalaccessalliance.com/in-case-you-mi…
✈️ Don’t let outdated regulations limit your travel options! YOU and Americans across the nation deserve more flight options and lower airline ticket prices. Join us in urging Congress to to support the bipartisan efforts to expand access at DCA: speak4.app/lp/e4bf63/?ts=…
Curious how adding more flights at DCA will impact you? 💰 Lower ticket prices. 📈 Strengthen economic growth. ✈️ Provide easier access to the destinations you love. Are you on board? Join us: capitalaccessalliance.com/?utm_campaign=…

.@SenTedCruz is standing up for the millions of airline consumers across the country. Travelers deserve affordable access to the national capital region. Thank You, Senator Cruz!
.@SenatorCantwell spoke up for consumers who deserve lower costs & more choices when visiting the national capital region. We would like to thank her for standing up for millions of travelers all across the country.
Strong bipartisan vote in Senate Commerce and a big win for air travelers over protecting the profits of one big airline. DCA has the capacity to add more flights and air travelers deserve more choices and lower ticket prices. Big step forward today.

BREAKING: The U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation passes a provision to add five new slot pairs at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) with strong bipartisan support. Read the full release: caanow.co/3w9D7TD
Air travelers deserve more choices at more affordable prices. As Virginia leaders support the development of a new sports & entertainment complex in Alexandria, VA, they should also support making the national capital region more affordable & accessible for all who want to visit.
Leading Conservatives agree: expand flights in and out of @Reagan_Airport. More competition means lower ticket prices.
ICYMI: CAA spokesperson, Brian Walsh, and Missouri grassroots leader, Lane Koch, urge support for additional flights at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA). Read more: caanow.co/3SHb8U4
Flights to our nation’s capital are some of the most expensive in the country. Congress can change that by allowing more flights at DCA, which will expand affordable access to the region for all. It’s time for Congress to stand up for consumers.

I'm heading down to the House floor to speak in support of my amendment to H.R. 3935, which adds seven new roundtrips - one for each airline currently operating out of DCA - all while preserving existing flight routes. Tune in: live.house.gov/?fbclid=IwAR0I…
Modernizing the antiquated federal perimeter rule doesn't benefit one airport, one airline, or any one member of Congress – it increases travel options, lowers ticket prices, and makes travel to Washington, D.C., more convenient for Americans.
Read today’s Special Section, Transportation 2023: How the U.S. is Leading, Commuting, and Exploring. @AirlinesDotOrg @USCapitalAccess @GovWesMoore @MarshaBlackburn @RepBrianBabin @RepSamGraves @congbillposey @JerryMoran @RepBurgessOwens @RepSpanberger trib.al/aGmn1Ux
New ad highlights the importance of modernizing the outdated DCA perimeter rule in this year’s FAA reauthorization bill….
BREAKING: New ad shares the story of Darlene, a teacher at a Title 1 school near Los Angeles, CA, who has taken her students to Washington, D.C. for more than 25 years but is met with limited options & high ticket costs due to the outdated perimeter rule. Watch the full video:
Appreciated the opportunity to discuss the outdated DCA perimeter rule on the @RuthlessPodcast this week and help set the record straight on some of these misleading claims by opponents who just oppose more competiton….
There they go again….United Airlines is keeping the fact checkers busy by continuing to parrot false and misleading claims to lawmakers on Capitol Hill and air travelers around the country regarding bipartisan efforts to modernize the outdated federal perimeter rule.
When gov't props up a less-desirable airport like Dulles at the expense of travelers to Washington, D.C., bipartisan reforms like The DCA Act are needed. More seats into DCA means more competition & lower prices for Michigan families and businesses. #PureMichigan @USCapitalAccess
#Michigan's families & biz face artificially $$$ flights due to a 60-yo federal rule that can be reformed to allow more competition at DCA Reagan Washington National. @USCapitalAccess' @brianjameswalsh explained to #Detroit's WJR how Congress can help. bit.ly/3NRzS8z
Air travel for July 4th weekend is up 11.2% since 2022. While travelers are making their way to and from our nation's capital this weekend, the perimeter rule stops millions of Americans from accessing Washington, D.C. @USCapitalAccess hubs.li/Q01WqnHK0
ICYMI: latest op-ed in @WashPost: Opinion It's past time to allow more and longer flights at Reagan National - goo.gl/alerts/mKKekj #GoogleAlerts
Joining @Reagan_Airport in liking this tweet as well and a thank you to Michigan's @ABC_GMC for supporting for more flights to/from DCA that will give air travelers more choices & lower ticket prices while protecting current regional flights cc: @SenGaryPeters & @SenStabenow
Today, I introduced the Direct Capital Access Act alongside my colleague, @RepBurgessOwens. This bill seeks to add 14 in- and beyond-perimeter flights at DCA in the 2023 FAA Reauthorization bill.
With less than 7 direct flights from CA to DCA, it’s time to pass the DCA Act to improve access to & from our nation’s capital! We urge @gracenapolitano @AlexPadilla4CA @SenFeinstein to join @USCapitalAccess.
Ditto. Appears overlooked by those like @MWAAHQ & @RepDonBeyer who say Congress should stay out of DCA flights - that's actually an argument for repealing the perimeter rule which was...wait for it...established by Congress nearly 60 years ago. A lot has changed since then.
I'm a @georgeallenva fan but MWAA is no paragon of local accountability. It hiked tolls to fund metro without any politicians actually voting for it! But regardless, the perimeter rule is a *federal statute*! For local control, repeal it. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/…
Appreciate WJLA giving viewers/readers both sides - "Walsh argues that more long distance flights would increase competition and lower prices for travelers, plus generate extra economic activity by making DC more accessible for many who live far away." wjla.com/news/local/air…
I am proud to introduce The Direct Capital Access Act to ensure that families in my district and across the country have the opportunity to visit our nation’s capital & do it for a cost that doesn’t break the bank.
I'm proud to introduce the DCA Act with @RepHankJohnson to modernize the 60-year-old perimeter rule that's made Washington DC one of the most expensive destinations in the country. Our nation's capital should be affordable & accessible for every American. owens.house.gov/posts/owens-jo…
Idahoans want to visit Washington, D.C. Allowing direct flights to @Reagan_Airport will make their travel more convenient and affordable. It’s time for Congress to remove the antiquated regulation that’s restricted air traffic into our nation’s capital.
Agree. It is absurd there are not flights to cities like San Diego and San Antonio. And only ~1-2 to places like SF & SLC a day. Keep it up @USCapitalAccess
An alarming 40% of passengers at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) are forced to make unnecessary connections. We think your time is too valuable to spend on longer travel. If you agree, ask Congress to fix it → caanow.co/3LCoPA6
Washington D.C. has the most expensive domestic ticket prices compared across the top 10 U.S. metropolitan areas. For many, this means access to our Nation’s government is out of reach. Congress has a chance to fix that. Learn more:capitalaccessalliance.com
Americans in Utah and across the country deserve direct, affordable, and reliable access to our nation’s capital. Let's ditch the outdated regulations and add more flights between DCA and SLC.
D.C. is one of the largest metro areas in the U.S., but an outdated regulation limits the number of flights that can land and take off at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA).
Utahns are joining the campaign to add more Utah flights from Washington, D.C. I’ll work with the @saltlakechamber, @Delta, other airlines, & all parties to make sure residents of western states can more easily travel back and forth to our nation’s capital. #utpol (1/2)
