On December 11, 2017, the U.S. Trade Representative published its biennial readjustment of U.S. dollar thresholds for government procurements covered by the Trade Agreements Act. The new thresholds, which go into effect January 1, 2018 for calendar years 2018 and 2019, reflect a continued decline in threshold values since the 2014-2015 revision, coinciding with the stronger value of the U.S. dollar relative to the other currencies included in market basket of currencies constituting the IMF’s Special Drawing Rights (SDRs) used to establish the thresholds contained in the WTO’s Agreement on Government Procurement.

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.
