WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Senate Commerce Committee chair Maria Cantwell said Thursday she wants Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun to appear before her committee as she prepares legislation that would boost Federal Aviation Administration oversight of planemakers.
Calhoun appeared before another Senate committee on June 19, but Cantwell told reporters Thursday she expects the outgoing chief executive will also appear for a hearing at a future date before her committee. Cantwell said she will also soon release proposed FAA legislation to require the agency to use safety management systems.
