This about sums it up.
"Miracle on the Hudson" Pilot Joins 3407 Families In Push For Airline Safety
"3407 families are fearful of a push by the airline industry to ease the training requirements, and that it might be sneaked in as part of a broader bill to re-authorize the the FAA Charter this year."

As long as the families can get public heros like sully to stand up for them, I don't see it changing for at least another 5 years, they fought long and hard to get this rule put into place. I respect sully as a pilot but as a spokesman for the industry, he shouldn't be allowed to speak.

The airlines may feel entitled to a vast pool of already-certificated potential employees willing to fly airliners for fast-food wages but the reality is that there is no real shortage until airlines start funding ab-initio flight training for new-hires...if they can't fill classes at that point, then it's a shortage

I'm not sure how or why anyone can feel entitled to occupy a PILOT seat of an AIRLINE TRANSPORT without at least meeting the requirements to hold an AIRLINE TRANSPORT PILOT certificate? But stranger (read dumber) things have happened.
