Congress Passes Comprehensive Five-year FAA Bill
The bill is the longest FAA reauthorization to pass since the 1980s, Sen. Thune noted.

Today’s vote culminated a four-plus-year process that involved six short-term extensions, several versions of the bill, hundreds of meetings on Capitol Hill, dozens of hearings, and one of the most contentious debates surrounding the future of the air traffic control organization.
