Airline Operational Resiliency Act of 2023
Key: what the circles and colors mean
Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:
Under the number: the Yea · Nay count of its final (or latest) recorded vote. On a member's page, the small badge is how that member voted: Y Yea / Aye, N Nay / No, P Present, – Not voting.
Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.
Never voted on. It didn't reach a floor vote before the 118th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

Airline Operational Resiliency Act of 2023
This bill requires the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to study and report on air carriers' operational preparedness for changing weather and other events related to changing conditions and natural hazards (e.g., flooding, extreme heat, storms, and fire conditions). GAO must also make recommendations for any related legislative and administrative action.
As part of the study, GAO must assess
- the extent to which air carriers are preparing for weather events and natural disasters, as well as changing conditions, that may have an impact on air carriers' operational investments, staffing levels and safety policies, and mitigation strategies;
- how the Federal Aviation Administration oversees air carriers' operational resilience to these types of events; and
- steps the federal government and air carriers can take to improve their operational resilience.
