Brown Bailout Vote Coming Up Next Week

(Note: I’ve written extensively about the Brown Bailout, which is embedded into the FAA Reauthorization Act, on ColoradoPols previously. You can find my entries on the subject HERE and HERE)

The buzz around town is that Senator Reid will be bringing a version of the FAA Reauthorization Bill to the floor for a vote next week. Either he’ll bring a version of the bill with the Brown Bailout provision included in it or he’ll put forward the Brown Bailout as a stand-alone bill.

In order to pass this bailout, Senator Reid will need 60 votes, so our Colorado senators will have a chance to stand up for their constituents and fight the kind of anti-business political favoritism which the Brown Bailout represents.

For anyone who is interested in making sure Senators Bennet and Udall do the right thing for Colorado’s economy, you can tell them to oppose the Brown Bailout HERE.
