Plane with 5 House members clipped by aircraft on taxiway at D.C.’s Reagan National Airport

A plane carrying five members of the U.S. House of Representatives was clipped by another aircraft on the ground at Ronald Reagan National Airport in Washington, D.C., on Thursday, officials said.

U.S. Reps. Nick LaLota, R-NY, Grace Meng, D-NY, and Josh Gottheimer, D-NJ, all confirmed to NBC News they were aboard the American Airlines plane that was clipped.

Two of those lawmakers also confirmed that U.S. Reps Adriano Espaillat and Ritchie Torres, both Democrats from New York, were also aboard that craft.

“While waiting to take off on the runway at DCA just now, another plane struck our wing,” Gottheimer said in a statement posted to X. “Thankfully, everyone is safe. Just a reminder: Recent cuts to the FAA weaken our skies and public safety.”

An American Eagle jet and a military Black Hawk helicopter collided in the air over DCA on Jan. 29, killing all 67 people aboard both crafts.
