House, Senate Gear Up for FAA Bills This Month
Full FAA reauthorization is anticipated to come before committee consideration in both the House and Senate later this month.

U.S. House and Senate lawmakers are each expected to consider comprehensive FAA reauthorization packages later this month, but similar to last year, the bills are expected to vary significantly from each other on the air traffic control issue. The Senate is anticipated to introduce its bill in a few days and the Commerce Committee is said to have tentatively set a June 28 date for consideration. It is less clear when the House will introduce a bill, but that likely will occur in upcoming days as well, with a June 27 consideration tentatively planned for the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee.
