Heather Beaven attacks Mica on his effort to ban lithium batteries on airplanes

NEW VIDEO: JOHN MICA'S ARCHAIC IDEAS ARE OUT OF STEP WITH THE MODERN WORLD

While our families await help from Congress to spur job creation in Florida, John Mica introduced legislation prohibiting lithium batteries on airplanes. This would ban cell phones, laptops and I-pods on commercial airplane flights in America. If John Mica is successful, this would greatly harm large and small business communication. Clearly John Mica is not only out of touch with today's business traveler, he does not understand today's world. In the 20th century, we could "unplug" for days but that just isn't how the world works today.

Even his fellow Republicans in Congress disagree with John Mica on his legislation. They know that Mica's legislation would further depress innovation and job creation.
