Arlington, Va. – The Aerospace Industries Association (AIA) today commended the Trump Administration for prioritizing significant and strategic investments in national security, missile defense, and air traffic modernization.
“Prioritizing research and development, manufacturing, defense and aviation systems strengthens national security while fueling American innovation, workforce development, and global leadership,” said Eric Fanning, AIA’s President and CEO. “When paired with pro-growth policies like the R&D tax credit and full capital expensing—as well as landmark investments in NASA’s exploration missions and the continued modernization of our nation’s air traffic control infrastructure—these efforts lay the foundation for sustained advancement across the aerospace and defense sectors. AIA applauds the Administration and Congress for addressing these vital needs and driving progress toward a safer, more resilient, and competitive future for our nation.”
