Let us not forget what 2007 (age 65) followed by 2008 did to a lot of us.
Hopefully it won't completely stop, but it will definitely slow. Are you emailing/calling your reps on this? We might get steamrolled either way but if it's close 1,000s of letters/calls might just be enough to get one or two reps to change their vote.
Not sure if you're ALPA but they make it super easy. I lived through age 65 and I'll be ****** if I don't at least fight another age increase.
