Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 01.30.17
On January 28, 2017, President Trump issued an executive order setting forth the ethics restrictions for its executive agency appointees. These restrictions, discussed more fully in our blog post, are simultaneously more restrictive and less restrictive than their 2009 Obama counterparts, and appear to be more focused on appointees’ conduct following their exit from Government rather than on their conduct preceding and during their appointments.

The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) published a final rule amending 14 CFR Part 234 that fundamentally changes how airlines report the causes of flight delays and cancellations. Effective October 19, 2026, the rule implements Section 511(b) of the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024 by creating a new reporting category, the “Section 511(b) category,” for ten specific events that Congress determined are not attributable to airline control. The rule simultaneously narrows the existing "Air Carrier" reporting category by expressly excluding those same ten events.
