Only federal law (or the constitution) can supersede federal law.
If you hate 67, don't rely on your union to fix it after it passes.
I'm not sure why the big worry of 67 or 69 ? We aren't flying 727, 707 , L1011 etc. that were much more complicated to operate with much less technology and much more complex approaches with less technology. The airplanes are much more automated and systems easier managed by computers etc. Even if there is a cognitive decline somewhat by 67 or 69 the automation and technology more than make up for it . Not saying I'm pushing for those ages but if they pass those I don't see the big deal or raucous about it .
