Bill Shuster
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -  Republican Representative Bill Shuster  the chairman of the Transportation Committee in the U.S. House of Representatives   will not run for re-election in November   he  said in a statement on Tuesday.
 Shuster   56  who has served in Congress since 2001  said in a statement that he will spend his last year in office “working with President Trump and my Republican and Democratic colleagues in both Chambers to pass a much needed infrastructure bill to rebuild America.”
 Shuster  has championed a plan backed by Trump to privatize the U.S. air traffic control system  but it has faced opposition in Congress and was not approved last year.
 The Pennsylvania congressman  proposed legislation that would make it illegal for an airline to bump an already boarded passenger from a flight. In April  a United Airlines passenger was forcibly removed from  his  seat  prompting public outrage. The airline banned the practice.
