    I wonder what it would be like if all members of Congress committed to flying Coach. (You know, like most of the people they serve.)https://twitter.com/CBSDFW/status/945404139068182528 …

        Indeed. Federal grantees are required to fly coach. Would be nice if Congress followed the same rules they establish for everyone else.

        They receive frequent flier miles, which they are apparently allowed to use for upgrades, vacations. Notice members of Congress don’t typically fly Southwest Airlines. SW doesn’t fly to Europe and many exotic vaca destinations.

        I think they should fly in the cargo hold...survival of the fittest will help quell their arrogance.

        My company requires everyone fly coach. It's a media company with some nationally known radio hosts. If anyone upgrades to business class, it's on them to pay the extras.

        I noticed Rep Jackson wasted no time in deciding that the school teacher must have complained because she was racist. 🙄

        If she didn’t ask for anything special how did she get someone’s seat that was already paid for,while that person was pushed to a more economical section? She should have taken the *available* one.🙄
