Donald Trump next week will send Congress a proposal to hand over control of the U.S. air-traffic control system to a non-profit corporation, part of a week-long push for his infrastructure plan, said Gary Cohn, the president's chief economic adviser.
The proposal, which Trump will release on Monday in an Oval Office ceremony and Rose Garden event, will kick off what Cohn, director of the National Economic Council, called the formal launch of the president's infrastructure initiative. Later in the week, Trump plans to travel to Ohio and Kentucky to garner support for his plan -- a key campaign promise -- to channel $1 trillion into the nation's roads, bridges, inland waterways and other public facilities.

He did break them. Considering they basically ended up grounding all airline flights I can see why he stepped in. But maybe thousands of people stranded and millions of tons of cargo can just wait huh until they get their extra 25 cents an hour?

And thus ends the lesson in the power of collective bargaining. Congratulations, grasshopper.
