NiW Welcomes U.S. Representative Sharice Davids (Kan.-03)

May 1, 2024

NATCA was honored to have U.S. Representative Sharice Davids (Kan.-03) address our members at #NATCAinWashington, who are gathered in D.C. for a week of advocacy and action on Capitol Hill.

Rep. Davids was raised by a single mother and Army veteran. She worked through community college and the University of Missouri-Kansas City, eventually earning a law degree from Cornell. A first-generation college graduate, her background in economic and community development was further shaped by her time as a White House Fellow under President Obama. She is one of the first two Native American women in Congress.

Rep. Davids serves on the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure's Aviation Subcommittee. As a friend of NATCA, she has been a strong advocate for FAA Reauthorization.
