Most observers, including many Senators, agreed that the airline safety bill passed by the House was a good one. It would give the FAA more money to improve the air traffic control system, give passengers some rights regarding stalled flights and enable airports to generate more revenue.
But the bill did not pass in the Senate largely because the Democrats tried to insert extraneous issues - money for the highway trust fund, a subway station under Ground Zero - into the bill.
Is this responsible representation?
