Bill Summary
No Congressional First Class Flights Act
AI Summary
This bill, the "No Congressional First Class Flights Act," prohibits the use of official funds for airline accommodations for Members of Congress that are not coach-class accommodations, unless necessary to accommodate a medical disability or other special need. The bill defines "coach-class accommodations" as the basic class of accommodation by airlines that is normally the lowest fare offered, regardless of airline terminology used (e.g., tourist class, economy class, or single class). The bill requires the Committee on House Administration and the Committee on Rules and Administration of the Senate to promulgate regulations to carry out the act, and it applies to fiscal year 2019 and each succeeding fiscal year.
