3 years. it's age 68. it's like saying now we have to retire at 64.

Congress will be too busy doing BS investigations to be bothered with governing.

Age 68?

Here is whatever the bill says:

What the legislation does

The Let Experienced Pilots Fly Act would raise the mandatory pilot retirement age from 65 to 67.

What is cited to actually states:

“Odds of passage

“The House version has attracted seven cosponsors, all Republicans. It awaits a potential vote in the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee.

“The Senate version has attracted five cosponsors, all Republicans. It awaits a potential vote in the Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee.

“Odds of passage are difficult to predict.

“On one hand, both chambers’ versions have only achieved Republican cosponsorship to date, at a time when Democrats control both chambers. On the other hand, the 2007 law raising the retirement age by five years — more than twice the two-year raise this legislation proposes — proved noncontroversial, passing 390–0 in the House and by unanimous consent in the Senate.”
