I was honored to join you today, @AIAspeaks. My message to you is to keep innovating. And my charge to the FAA team is to welcome innovation, not despite what it might mean to aviation safety and efficiency, but because of it.
Honored to have Acting Administrator @FAA_Billy at our Board of Governors meeting. The FAA plays a critical role in shaping aviation's future, making the US a global leader in innovation, safety, & competitiveness. We look forward to continued collaboration.

I cannot underscore enough the importance of our partnerships and building trust to protect our communities. Today, I spoke to the @MELOAUSA on these principles as well as the importance of diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility.
ALT The principles of DEIA – Diversity. Equity. Inclusion. Accessibility. – put organizations in a position of strength, allowing us to be more innovative and enabling us to accomplish our mission more effectively. At TSA, we are committed to integrating DEIA principles into everything we do. Inclusion encompasses effective and constructive communication, collaboration, flexibility and fairness. This means employees can participate and contribute to their fullest potential. Having a diverse and inclusive workplace improves morale and productivity. It connects every employee to our mission. It also connects people with communities, earning trust.
