Yesterday, the Senate continued their deliberations on HR 3935, the Securing Growth and Robust Leadership in American Aviation Act. There was one recorded vote on a motion to table the consideration of SA 2027, a placeholding amendment made by Sen Schumer (D,NY) that would send the bill back to Committee to change the effective date. The motion failed by a vote of 12 to 85. A unanimous consent motion was adopted to resume consideration of the bill today.
Moving Forward
Cloture votes for SA 1911 (the modified Senate substitute
language) and the full bill are scheduled for today. If the bill passes, the
House is scheduled to be in session tomorrow (it is not in session today), so
it could potentially consider the Senate language under the suspension of the
rules process and make it to the President’s desk before the FAA’s current
authority expires at midnight. Lacking that, the House approved HR 8289 yesterday.
The Senate could take up that short-term extension of the FAA authorities today
or tomorrow.

a look at a CFATS related amendment that was offered, see my article at CFSN
