This was a vote on a resolution setting a time limit for debate and determining which amendments could be offered to legislation authorizing annual funding for the Federal Aviation Administration, and limiting the ability of federal aviation and railroad workers to form unions. (The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has regulatory authority over all civil aviation in the United States.) Specifically, the bill imposed a new rule requiring that workers who did not vote at all in union elections would be counted as having voting against unionizing. The underlying bill also cut $2 billion in federal funding for making improvements at U.S. airports. Overall, the bill cut $4 billion in federal funding for FAA operations—reducing total FAA funding to 2008 levels. |
