I want to express my gratitude to Sen. Amy Klobuchar for her leadership in cofounding the newly launched bipartisan Senate Sustainable Aviation Caucus. This initiative builds on the momentum created just a few months ago with the establishment of the Congressional Sustainable Aviation Caucus in the House, where Reps.
