U.S. Rep. Maggie Goodlander Meets With NATCA New England Leadership at Boston Center (ZBW)

U.S. Representative Maggie Goodlander (N.H.-2) recently met with NATCA New England leadership at Boston Center (ZBW). NATCA New England Regional Vice President Kevin Curtiss (Boston Center, ZBW), New Hampshire Legislative State Coordinator Alex Hendrickson (Engineer/New England Region, ENE), and Boston Center local Vice President Dustin Frost (Boston Center, ZBW) attended the meeting with Rep. Goodlander. The group discussed ATC staffing levels, recent Congressional legislation and its impact on NATCA members, and the increased cost of living in southern New Hampshire. 

In addition to those priorities, NATCA New England leadership offered three legislative priorities to Rep. Goodlander, which included:

• NATCA’s involvement in plans for new ATC buildings and technology
• Passage of the Mental Health in Aviation Bill (HR 2591)
• A January 2026 pay increase for controllers and aviation safety professionals

NATCA New England thanks Rep. Goodlander for her time and support and looks forward to hosting her future visits at Boston TRACON (A90) and Manchester ATCT (MHT).
