you and the faa in those efforts. mr. dickson, in your testimony discuss how the faa is transforming its relationship with manufacturers and i'm glad to hear that. agency capture regulatory capture it's something i have been and remained deeply concerned about, and something on which i think there is strong bipartisan concern. in your judgment, how has boeing reacted to this culture change and to the implementation of the new requirements that were part of the aviation safety bill? >> senator cruz, again, culture change requires daily focus. it requires regular focus. you cannot just change a process on the chart and expect for the kind of beneficial changes that this law provides for, and that we are undertaking in terms of our own work to stick. so it is really important within the agency that we are transparent. boeing isn't the same -- not the same as it was two years ago, but they have more work to do, and the voluntary estimates program that they have in place is giving us big quicker information about issues th

and i want to thank you and commend you for the work you and the faa did commissioning the faa alaska aviation safety initiative, and as you know, sir, this came out of the february 2020 ntsb report and the february, which looked at a ten-year period and noted the very high accident rates in alaska, the high fatality rates in alaska relative to any other communities, any other parts of the country. so i want to ask, although it's not a budget document, the aviation safety initiative report as it related to alaska certainly points out features in which we need improvement. and i always like to say, yes, it is expensive. to help smaller communities like mine, but i have over 200 communities that aren't even connected by road. the federal government builds roads, we wouldn't need this kind of infrastructure, but as you know, we need it dramatically, and it's all about safety. so how will you use that alaska aviation safety initiative report to prioritize funding initiatives to be put in the budget with the faa? >> thank you, senator. as you and i have discussed, i understand the importan

we need to the faa to be that gold standard. when a special committee review of aviation certification process came back with a whitewash of what we wanted to do, i was disappointed that you didn't take more critique with that. in fact basically, testified before congress basically the system is not broken. i look forward to your testimony but reading it, i see more of the same. now is not a time to mince words. now is the time to provide the leadership that it takes to get the staffing, the oversight and the direction that is required via an oversight agency to hold manufacturers accountable. make no mistake the manufacturer has its own responsibilities here and we will also hold them accountable. we believe there's more to be done on certification we are not just creating checkmarks on the list but we can say that is where we were with the system. in the end it was the tragedy that we know too well and are still living ways. i'm very challenged by your testimony. we don't believe the faa is prepared on january 1 of 2022 to res

with the requirement of a conviction or a fine from the faa. but also, there could be an additional tier of advisements for trouble passengers where one airline has conducted an internal investigation and determined they are going to ban that traveler from that particular airline. that information still needs to be shared with the other airline soez they have the information and can address the issue as passengers are purchasing tickets as well. so it's another step that could be added to the list that would not be a no-fly required by tsa, but information to help make good decisions and help on the ground. >> dr. kelly. >> thank you. thank you, chairman thompson, and you know, i echo my colleagues. i believe it's paramount to have such a process, right. with an assurance of due process, to make sure, you know, make sure that everyone has due process and everyone is treated fairly and with dignity. i certainly approve it. >> okay. so ms. nelson, without getting into the weeds, that incident that occurred on southwest over the weekend, what kind

faa has done a wonderful job of announcing the fines that they have levied against passengers. we want to see more of that in the airports and from tsa. it is very difficult when passengers acknowledge that they must wear a mask at the point of ticket sale and at the point of check-in. and that it is not enforced in the airport sends a wrong message. and we cannot call for help in a metal tube. it is critically important that tsa have an enforcement procedure and also be publishing those fines against people who are not complying. >> thank you, ms. nelson. as we have all seen in the news reports, there has been an explosion of violence against tsos, flight attendants, and other transportation workers in recent months. tsa restarted its self-defense training course for flight crew in july, which is currently voluntary for flight attendants to take. while i'm sure no flight attendant ever wants to have to employ the tactics they learn in this class against the passenger, sadly this training feels more and more essential with each news story that comes out. ms. nelson, you have pr
