A flight with members of Texas' U.S. Congressional delegation aboard, including
former Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul, "took a major nosedive" and
was forced to make an emergency landing on Tuesday afternoon, according to a
Houston TV station.
KHOU reports that a Continental Airlines flight carrying seven U.S. lawmakers
suddenly lost cabin pressure on its way from Houston to Washington, D.C.'s
Reagan National Airport.
The flight recovered, was diverted and landed safely in New Orleans, according
to one lawmaker's spokesperson.
Aboard the flight among 118 total people were Paul (R), along with Reps. John
Carter (R), Henry Cuellar (D), Nick Lampson (D), Solomon Ortiz (D), Ted Poe (R),
and Ciro Rodriguez (D), all representing Texas in the U.S. House.
The airline confirmed that no one was hurt, the report said.
