Exactly. The current bullshit situation is due to a federal regulation that requires airlines allow emotional support animals. This proposal would simply eliminate that requirement.

I’m glad because people are abusing the system. I have a coworker that spent a lot of money getting her dog trained and certified so she could bring it into restaurants. All it does is tying up resources from people that actually need service dogs.

I wish we could persucute those who abuse the system. Hving my compassion gamed for your furbaby makes me seethe.

> Rather than using the federal government to force airlines to allow these animals on board, we should trust airlines and passengers to find what works best through the marketplace.

Because we all know self-regulation works so well for the consumers.
