Derrick Van Orden and Bryan Steil just showed once again how out-of-touch they are with Wisconsin – this time by voting against a bipartisan aviation safety bill. 

Last night Van Orden and Steil cast decisive votes against the ROTOR Act, bipartisan legislation which “would have required planes to carry a type of tracking technology that federal investigators determined could have helped avoid a midair collision over the Potomac River last year that killed 67 people.” 

Before Van Orden and Steil cast their inexplicable votes, the chair of the National Transportation Safety Board told reporters: “How many more people need to die for us to decide that action needs to be taken?”

DCCC Spokesperson Katie Smith:
“Derrick Van Orden and Bryan Steil continue to put Wisconsin last.”
