A bill that may benefit our fight against airport noise and pollution. H. R. 976 has been introduced in Congress.

To direct the Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration to enter into appropriate arrangements with the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to provide for a report on the health impacts of air traffic noise and pollution, and for other purposes. Over 70,000 airplanes fly over Accokeek, Fort Washington. and adjacent communities every year. Tremendous noise and pollution are caused by these aircraft. If we are to get relief it is important that the politicians get involved. Take a look at the cosponsors, you don’t see Stenner Hoyer or Anthony Brown who represent Accokeek, Fort Washington, and Oxon Hill. We should remember these politicians in the next election.
