NATCA believes that the most serious challenge facing the FAA and our National Airspace System (NAS) today is the absence of a stable, predictable funding stream.
The most recent illustration of this unstable, unpredictable funding stream occurred from Dec. 22, 2018-Jan.
25, 2019 when the longest federal government shutdown in U.S. history ended after 35 days.
Stop-and-go funding negatively affects all aspects of the NAS.

Each part reads different filings, so counts and totals can differ.
Direct PAC contributions and independent expenditures explicitly reported as support, by the party of the candidate they went to.
| Party of the candidate | Candidates | Direct | Independent | Amount | Share |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Democratic | 173 | $1,025,000 | $0 | $1,025,000 | 63% |
| Republican | 114 | $504,000 | $0 | $504,000 | 31% |
| Other or unresolved | 41 | $101,500 | $0 | $101,500 | 6.2% |
| Shown support | 328 | $1,630,500 | $0 | $1,630,500 | 100% |
Contributions are reported money, not endorsements; a PAC giving to both parties is common.
Every contribution on line 23 of the committee’s own Schedule B, which is the filing its summary totals are built from. That line covers federal candidates, party committees and other political committees alike, so a super PAC funding other super PACs appears here rather than under candidate giving.

All 1,169 itemized payments filed this cycle. Spending below the itemization threshold is not filed line by line.

The running total of what the committee’s FEC reports say it spent, independent expenditures included, with a point at the end of each report. The line is straight between reports because a report gives one total for its whole period.
Published by the Commission against this committee’s own FEC ID. An audit is a periodic examination that reports findings; an administrative fine is a penalty for filing a specific report late or not at all. They are separate instruments and are not combined into a score here.

Case 541 at the FEC ↗Source: the Commission’s audit-case and administrative-fine records, joined on this committee’s FEC ID, imported Oct 26, 2026. Enforcement matters (MURs) are published only against respondent names, with no committee identifier, so they are not shown here rather than being matched by name.
Besides giving through its PAC, National Air Traffic Controllers Association pays lobbyists to press Congress and federal agencies. Each quarter it, or a firm it hires, files a public report under the Lobbying Disclosure Act saying which topics it worked on, what it spent, and whom it contacted. This is what those reports say.
Each report files its work under official topics. The bar shows how often each topic came up across the reports; open one to read what was filed under it. Naming a bill says the organization lobbied on it, not which side it took.
The organization’s own reports give its total lobbying costs, including any firms it hired; each firm reports what this client paid it.
Reported twice a year by the lobbying filer. $879.1K is political giving that also appears in FEC filings. $10K is honorary, presidential-library and event money disclosed only here.
Matched by name: these reports are filed for “NATIONAL AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS ASSOCIATION”, found by searching “NATIONAL AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS ASSOCIATION”. Lobbying and FEC records share no ID, so an organization that lobbies under another name is missed. Source: LDA.gov, accessed Oct 26, 2026. Senate Office of Public Records cannot vouch for the data or analyses derived from these data after the data have been retrieved from LDA.gov.

Candidate contribution rows come from candidate committee Schedule A filings, the same rows the party chart above counts.
Money moving between this committee and other committees, matched on FEC committee ID rather than the name each filing was typed under. Both sides exclude memo entries. The figures here count each committee once, from the itemized transfers read for this section, so they will not match the payment counts under Who this PAC gave to.

No committee-to-committee receipts were itemized this cycle.

By the state each contributor wrote on the filing. The FEC aggregates every Schedule A line together, so one committee or organization transfer can account for a whole state. Contributors who have given $200 or less this cycle are not itemized and cannot be placed on a map. The FEC’s grouping also counts joint-fundraising memo lines, so these rows can add up to more than the itemized total.
