Sequester Finally Hurts - Air Traffic Slowed
2013-04-23
As TV crews panned across anxious and angry passengers in New York terminals, the debate revived in Washington over whether the controller furloughs announced last week were necessary or a White House ploy to dramatize the effects of sequestration.

"Our aviation system should not be used as a pawn in budget debate," said Lee Moak, president of the Air Line Pilots Association. "The livelihood of our economy is dependent on air commerce, and the financial strength of our airlines and the people they employ are at risk."
What happens if there is an accident related to the controllers being overloaded? Blame Bush?
