I have a brief 1 minute to say that San Francisco International Airport is in my district. We are being hounded by noise in the middle of the night at 1, 2, and 3 a.m. in the morning. I convened a meeting with the FAA. They joined me at that meeting. They agreed to have a meeting with the airlines, and then the FAA here in Washington decided to renege. This is a message to the FAA: You owe your obligation to all the people of this country, and when a Member of Congress seeks to have you at a meeting, you show up at a meeting. When you don't show up at a meeting, heads are going to roll.
