Reid Announces Deal to End FAA Shutdown
Congress has reached a bipartisan compromise to end the partial shutdown of the Federal Aviation Administration that has left 74,000 transportation and construction workers idled, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said Thursday. The deal would allow the Senate to approve a House bill extending the FAA’s operating authority through mid-September, including a provision that cuts $16.5 million in air service subsidies to rural communities.

Thank goodness, I just hope it actually happens tomorrow and isn't another political ploy.
Glad to see so many going back to work, Last thing we need is more unemployment.
did anyone see the dow today? kaos!
Well, BHO is supposed to sign it today and they all should go back to work, but keep in mind children, it's only good thru mid September. As far as the DOW, it's all gonna depend on the jobs numbers today.
Harry was holding this bill hostage over some sort of subsidy for Ely, NV.
Well, the subsidy cuts are still in there but LaHood now has waiver authority. You know he ain't gonna piss anybody off until after long term funding is in place. If you live in Nevada, you plan on going to Vegas or Reno to shop anyway, so why do we subsidize Ely. Just like you live in Greenville MS. You are going to Jackson MS or Monroe LA or Memphis TN for your shopping; flying shouldn't be any different.
