HR 915, FAA Reauthorization Act, Passes House Hurdle

Still A Ways To Go.... But Progress Has Been Made

The House has passed H.R. 915, the FAA Reauthorization Act, in order to "To amend title 49, United States Code, to authorize appropriations for the Federal Aviation Administration for fiscal years 2009 through 2012, to improve aviation safety and capacity, to provide stable funding for the national aviation system, and for other purposes."

The vote was was hardly a slam-dunk and certain aspects certainly polarized a fair amount of the House... especially labor provisions seen as overtly in favor of Union concerns, thereby alienating much of the Republican minority. 

H.R. 915: Passed -- 5/21/2009 – 111th Congress, 1st Session
