PBOR 2 Wins Senate Approval
Senate passage comes less than a week after the Senate Commerce Committee approved a compromise version of the bill.

The Pilots Bill of Rights 2 took another step forward with yesterday’s passage by the full Senate. The Senate approved the bill by unanimous consent less than a week after the Senate Commerce Committee approved a compromise version of the bill, S.571, which addresses concerns of Sen. Bill Nelson (D-Fla.) and other committee members. The Senate passed the bill as the number of co-sponsors had grown to 70. The legislation still must receive consideration by the House, where the number of co-sponsors has reached 152.
