Rep. Stauber's bill, H.R. 346, was passed by the House of Representatives on January 25 by a vote of 424 to 4 (according to a T&I Committee email).

The existing FAA vehicle for input is not the same thing as a statutorily authorized task force with designated representation from relevant sectors and a legislative mandate to report to Congress.

Also iirc the Secretary's written responses to questions presented in the recent oversight letter were due to be provided on the 25th. Likewise the Secretary's briefing for Congress. Perhaps these dates have been deferred or finessed; I think Acting FAA Admin. Nolen recently briefed some people in Congress.
