Maybe there's a grass roots movement screaming for less airline safety but then again, maybe it's the same old corporate ass-kissing by the repugicans.

:A U.S. rule to require more rest for airline pilots may stall under a proposal adopted by the House, according to cockpit crews, lawmakers and other plan opponents.
The 215-209 vote today in Washington requires that the Federal Aviation Administration, before issuing any rules, consider alternatives, differing industry segments and adverse effects on the economy. The provision was added to legislation that will fund the FAA for four years, which the House also approved, 223-196.
The proposal will ensure rules “are not overly burdensome” and “based on the best available science,” Bill Shuster, the Pennsylvania repugican who wrote the plan, said yesterday on the House floor.
