The U.S. Senate has approved bipartisan legislation aimed at improving mental health support for pilots and air traffic controllers. The Mental Health in Aviation Act of 2025, passed by unanimous consent, seeks to remove barriers for these professionals seeking mental health treatment and reduce associated stigma. Key provisions include updating FAA regulations to encourage mental health declarations, expanding authorized medications, and improving medical examiner training. The legislation also allocates funds for additional medical examiners, expanded supervision, and public awareness campaigns.
