Point is, it's going to be a while before you see final language in the FARs. Maybe a year? Who knows.
If they pass it into law I don't believe it will go through the same rule making process, in fact I don't think the FAA will have any say in it what so ever (like the age 65 rule was legislation that went strait to the regs and skipped the rule making process). So you could end up seeing it within months.
