HR 2431 United States House · 119th Congress

Don't Cut FAA Workers Act of 2025

HR 2431, the "Don't Cut FAA Workers Act of 2025," prohibits the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) from implementing mass layoffs for one year following a major aviation accident (defined as an accident causing a fatal injury within 30 days). It defines a "mass layoff" as eliminating 10+ employees at a single FAA location or 250+ employees total across the agency within 90 days. The bill requires the FAA Administrator to notify Congress before any such layoff and allows the agency to proceed only if Congress passes a joint resolution approving it within 60 days. This law directly affects FAA employees and ensures congressional oversight of workforce reductions after major aviation incidents.
