The only two bills are the Hero's Act which has been sitting there for months due to the unrelated democrat wish list items they stuck in there. It was DOA before it left the house for the Senate. The recent bill Pelosi sent for 2.2 Trillion still has too much pork in it for democrat pet projects unrelated to Covid relief. The republican senators called it DOA before it left the house too.

Once Pelosi knocks off the crap and sends a clean bill, it will pass the same day.

Well if you think about it, congress probably does have the authority to adjust the Gregorian calendar.

Not enough time, need two full days after the end of the month. If the deadline was the end of February, it would be Feb 30.

"I don't think any airline can operate 33-35% of their flights and keep 100% of their employees"

Thats just simple math. Nobody can hold their breath forever. Serious question though. Can an airline operate at 35 percent and not file chapter 7?

Yes, if “subsidized” (or whatever-other fanboy word is used to support funding) by the Government. Well, tax payers.
