- “Denise’s voice reminds us why the fight against minimum Flight Attendant crew reduction matters,” APFA President Hedrick said. “Safer skies depend on respecting the critical safety role of Flight Attendants -- on every flight, and at every exit.”
- "Flight Attendants were vital to our survival— they remained calm and they directed us to do exactly what we needed to do in a time of panic, trauma and fear,” Denise Lockie said. “Their presence and proper staffing is life or death, as far as I’m concerned.” www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4zd...

- "The FAA needs an evacuation standard that reflects the reality of flying today... The American people deserve to know whether the FAA is taking this responsibility seriously and complying with the law to ensure the flying public can be safely evacuated from an aircraft during an emergency."
- "The letter makes clear that the public deserves a true assessment of aircraft evacuations to determine whether they can meet the 90-second mandate. It references last Saturday’s evacuation of American Airlines Flight 3023 in Denver which reportedly took more than 10 minutes."

- Last month, the Administration issued an executive order canceling the collective bargaining agreement of 47,000 Transportation Security Officers. This action was not about efficiency, safety, or homeland security – it was an outright attack on Unions. www.apfa.org/2025/04/03/4...
