Four new members have also joined the House Aerospace Caucus: Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas), Tracey Mann (R-Kansas), Chris Pappas (D-New Hampshire) and Frederica Wilson (D-Florida). This brings the total membership to 27, with 14 Democrats and 13 Republicans, including the chairman.
 
"I am thrilled to see the growth of the House Aerospace Caucus," said Chairman Estes. "Our bipartisan membership positions the Aerospace Caucus well to support the excellent work of aerospace manufacturers throughout the country. With the launch of the Aerospace Caucus website, we are providing a helpful resource to all those invested in the aerospace industry as the caucus advances their important work."
 
"As the home of airports large and small like Dallas Love Field and Dallas Executive, national airlines like Southwest, and innovative manufacturers like Airbus, Texas’ 30th District is at the center of American aviation," said Rep. Crockett. "I’m excited to join the new, bipartisan House Aerospace Caucus to support the American aerospace industry and the proud Texans who will chart the future of flight."
 
"Kansas is a global leader in aerospace manufacturing, exporting billions of dollars in products annually," said Rep. Mann. "The industry is a massive employer with a large footprint in both the state of Kansas and the United States, and I am honored to use my voice in Congress to advocate on their behalf. The House Aerospace Caucus is committed to helping the United States maintain its global leadership in the industry and address legislative issues affecting it. I look forward to working with my colleagues to strengthen American aerospace workforce, technology, and innovation to ensure safety and prosperity for generations to come."
 
"New Hampshire has a long and proud relationship with the aerospace, aviation, and defense sectors," said Rep. Pappas. "As a member of the House Aerospace Caucus, I remain committed to advocating on behalf of the Granite State’s aerospace industry. I’ll continue to work across the aisle to ensure this sector stays a key economic driver for the region, supports our national defense, and allows our state and nation to outcompete the world."

"As Miami looks to the future and remains committed to advancing the aerospace and aviation sectors, I am proud to work alongside my colleagues to expand access to this limitless industry," said Rep.
