Sure.... in the House. Good luck in the Senate.
Now on to the Senate Commerce Committee. FYI the plan was never as stand alone bills but always to be added to the FAA Re Authorization Bill. So it’s far from a done deal but probably at least 50/50 if not better odds. Also the senate co sponsor is Kelly AZ D (former Astronaut and Mnuchin also D).
The Senate bill has 10 cosponsors. 8 of them are republicans. Kelly and Manchin just joined recently. Still don't think it makes it though the Senate Committee, much less the full Democrat Senate.
Oh I’m surprised no one knows the the House Bill includes Retro language for all over 65 below 67 to return with full seniority. Will see if that survives. But my guess is that ALPA will do a 180 reversal (like last time and support Age 67) in return to remove the retro component to save face. Will see.
Not gonna happen.
