S. 3258

Aviation Medication Transparency Act of 2026

Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee · Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-IL)

24 September 2026 | Passed Senate with amendment (unanimous consent)

What's next: To the House (if and when it takes it up)

Summary: The bill would require the FAA to compile and publish a list of medications that pilots and air traffic controllers can safely take while maintaining their medical certification. Currently, the FAA only maintains lists of medications to avoid, so this measure aims to provide clarity by creating an affirmative list of approved medications that would be made publicly available on the FAA website and given to those applying for pilot and controller licenses.
