“In a disappointing move, members of the House voted (215-209) to approve an amendment which endangers the great progress we have made in flight safety since the crash of Flight 3407 and jeopardizes the lives of the flying public. This is a tragic assault on the mountain of work it took to advance necessary aviation reforms including measures to reduce pilot fatigue.
“I was proud to stand with Flight 3407 families today, voting against this amendment which stalls aviation safety reforms that save lives. We lost this battle but the fight is not over. We will fight this to the finish.”
