Political Factoid
Rep. John Mica (R-FL) played
petty partisan politics with lives
of thousands of American workers.
He triggered the
furloughing of 4,000* FAA
employees while he and the
other members of Congress
took off on a long summer
vacation in 2011.
This also started $1.2 billion
in tax revenues going to
airline CEO's instead of
helping to pay off the
national debt.

Along with an additional 70,000 private
industry employees.
