Airline Relief Bill Passes Senate and House

 

With a Senate vote of 93-0, House vote 414-12, the separate FY 2003 Appropriation Supplemental bills were passed late last night providing over $3 billion in relief for the Airline Industry.  Next week will be critical when the House and Senate attempt to reconcile their differences in spending.

 

RAP has listed House members who voted “NO” to the Supplemental Bill.  We urge you to contact your Representatives and encourage them to support relief for the airlines as they face more and more challenges, which will further impact service to rural and small communities.

 

Arizona:

            Jeff Flake, 6th

            Raul Grijalva, 7th

 

California

 Sam Farr, 17th

            Barbara Lee, 9th

            Diane Watson, 33rd

            Lynn Woosley, 6th

 

Georgia:

Ohio:

            Dennis Kucinich, 10th

 

 

RAP will inform you of additional updates as they become available.  More to come.
