The entity to receive funding for this project is the City of Lancaster, located at 211 N Henry St, Lancaster, Texas 75146. The funding would be used for the relocation of the taxiway at Lancaster Regional Airport. This relocation will allow for increased safety and compliance with FAA Advisory Circular 150/5300-13A as described in Table 3-4 for Runway centerline to Taxiway centerline separation. The current distance between the runway and taxiway at Lancaster Regional Airport is 300 feet. The FAA requires a separation of 400 feet for taxiways from runways with a precision instrument approach. I certify that neither I nor my immediate family has any financial interest in this project. Sincerely, Eddie Bernice Johnson Member of Congress PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER.

  • Letter to Congressional Black Caucus
    December 4, 2020 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Speaker of the House Minority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives H-232, U.S. Capitol H-204, U.S. Capitol Washington, DC 20515 Washington, DC 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Leader McCarthy: As members of the Congressional Black Caucus, we want to thank you for your efforts to ensure access to health care for patients and to ensure that physicians and specialists around the country have been able to continue operations during this pandemic. However, we are becoming increasingly concerned about looming cuts facing many specialists, which are expected to go into effect beginning on January 1, 2021. On December 1, 2020, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ (CMS) published the final rule for the CY2021 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule, which increased rates for the office-based evaluation and management (E/M) code set in CY2021. Due to the requirement for budget neutrality, this will result in sizable cuts for over thirty healthcare specialties. While we are supportive of the increases for the office-based E/M code set, the resulting cuts are ill-conceived in the middle of a pandemic. Even without these cuts, too many practices are struggling, even as patients need access to health care now more than ever. We are aware of solutions to either waive budget neutrality requirements (H.R. 8505) or to hold specialists harmless (H.R. 8702). While not perfect, either of these solutions would give healthcare specialists the financial security they need to weather the COVID-19 pandemic.

  • January 2019 Legislative Update
    LEGISLATIVE UPDATE JANUARY 2019 The November election resulted in a Congress that looks far different than it ever has. As you know, Democrats took over the House, and both political parties changed in significant ways that will likely affect the way business is done in Washington. As the Majority, Democrats will have control over those Committees affecting maritime policy. Chairman Adam Smith (D-WA) and Ranking Member Mac Thornberry (R-TX) will head up the House Armed Services Committee which notably has jurisdiction over the Maritime Security Program, as well as any "new build" and recapitalization issues impacting the maritime schools' training ships. Chairman Peter DeFazio (D-OR) and Ranking Member Sam Graves (R-MO) lead the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee (T&I) which has jurisdiction over the majority of issues important to the U.S.-flag industry, including the Coast Guard, the Jones Act and MarAd. Rep. Nita Lowey (D-NY) chairs the House Appropriations Committee along with her Republican counterpart Kay Granger (R- TX). The Committee oversees MSP funding. Chairman Bennie Thompson (D-MI) and Ranking Member Mike Rogers (R-AL) head up the House Homeland Security Committee which has jurisdiction over ports under the Marine Transportation Security Act and other maritime security issues. We are still awaiting the announcement of House Subcommittee leadership appointments including Chairs for the Armed Services Committee's Seapower and Projection Forces Subcommittee (expected to be Rep. Joe Courtney (D-Conn.)) and T&I’s Coast Guard & Maritime Transportation Subcommittee. In the Senate, Richard Shelby (R-AL) and Patrick Leahy (D-VT) will oversee the Senate Appropriations Committee.
