BREAKING: Airlines will now have to pay you when they mess up. The Department of Transportation has issued a new rule requiring airlines to give you an automatic refund if your flight is canceled or delayed or if they lose your bags. It’s a game changer for U.S. travel.
“Those of us who spent years fighting for fairness and competition in the airline industry have been heartened by a series of positive—in some cases unprecedented—developments by @USDOT.” @WilliamJMcGee introduces @SecretaryPete as he announces a major rule on passenger refunds.

And finally, in yet another victory for regular Americans, @USDOL ALSO released its long awaited fiduciary rule today to protect the savings of millions of workers! @Public_Citizen
