Senator Tammy Duckworth proposes the EVAC Act, requiring FAA to create real-world evacuation rules for airplanes.

Senator Tammy Duckworth pushes for a bill that would require the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to create real-world evacuation rules for airplanes. She claims the FAA's current tests do not consider real-world conditions, such as seat density, carry-on baggage, or passengers of different ages and abilities. The Emergency Vacating of Aircraft Cabin (EVAC) Act, which Duckworth has been advocating for over a year, aims to address these issues.
