Congress Passes 6-Month Extension for FAA Reauthorization, No Provisions Included for Accessible Travel Yet
Congress has voted to extend the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) tax authority for six months, which was initially required to be complete by September 30. The extension, formally titled the Disaster Tax Relief and Airport and Airway Extension Act of 2017 (H.R. 3823), funds FAA operations at its current funding level until March 31, 2018, includes hurricane relief funds and gives Congress additional time to come to an agreement on the final FAA reauthorization bill.
