The FAA has been without a permanent administrator since April 2022, and Biden’s nominee withdrew in March in the face of Republican opposition.

“The FAA needs a Senate-confirmed administrator with substantial aviation experience,” Senator Ted Cruz said in a letter to Biden seen by Reuters. “Every day that passes without a FAA administrator puts the flying public at risk.”
