Concerns raised about House passed bill that would loosen DCA airspace restrictions

A $900 billion Pentagon spending bill that has passed the U.S. House and now heads to the Senate is raising concerns because of some language the chair of the National Transportation Safety Board, Jennifer Homendy, says weakens some of the reforms enacted in the aftermath of the Jan. 29 crash near Reagan National Airport.

An Army Black Hawk helicopter and an American Airlines regional jet collided and 67 people in both aircraft died.
