[QUOTE="Dustyroads, post: 593471, member: 22610"] Senator Pat Roberts of Kansas wrote: "Thank you for taking the time to write regarding the Express Carrier Employee Protection provision of the FAA Reauthorization Act. I appreciate hearing from you on this issue. Section 806 of this legislation (H.R. 2881) amends the Railway Labor Act to provide coverage to express carrier employees who are in positions eligible for certification under FAA rules and who perform duties for the carrier that are eligible for certification. All other express carrier employees would be covered by the National Labor Relations Act. Last year, I voted to end debate on the FAA Reauthorization bill so Congress could move forward. Unfortunately the effort to end debate and move to a final vote failed to reach the required 60 votes. I am hopeful that the Senate will consider an FAA Reauthorization bill this year so we can bring the FAA technology into the next generation and protect the public's safety. Again, thank you for taking the time to contact me. If you would like more information on the issues before th Senate, please visit my website at [URL]http://roberts.senate.gov[/URL].
