What this bill would do

The Aviation Funding Solvency Act aims to provide funding from the Aviation Insurance Revolving Fund to ensure Federal Aviation Administration activities continue during a government shutdown. This occurs if an appropriation measure or a continuing appropriations law is not in effect. The bill allows the Administrator to use covered amounts for various programs, projects, and activities, including those for operations, facilities, and equipment. It establishes specific rules for the rate of operations and the availability of these funds. Additionally, it mandates that the Administrator prioritize employee compensation for the Air Traffic Organization if funds are insufficient. The act also includes an amendment regarding non-premium war risk insurance.
