House Positions ATC Proposal for Vote
The Rules Committee, which sets the parameters for a House vote, reopened the FAA reauthorization bill to potential amendments.

U.S. House Transportation and Infrastructure (T&I) Committee officials are hopeful of bringing their comprehensive six-year FAA reauthorization bill, complete with the air traffic control reorganization provision, to the floor for a vote possibly next week. The House Rules Committee reopened the bill to potential amendments, establishing a deadline of 3 p.m. today. By early this morning, nearly 146 amendments had been filed for possible consideration, including one offered by Rep. Pete DeFazio (D-Oregon), the ranking Democrat on the T&I Committee, to strip out the ATC measure and replace it with another provision to provide more certainty for FAA funding.
