Restrict bike parking at airports?

From Washcycle:
Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) continues to hate on cycling. He has once again proposed legislation restricting airports (including DCA, BWI and IAD) from using revenue from the Passenger Facility Charges to pay for bike parking. "The PFC allows the collection of up to $4.50 for every passenger at commercial airports to be used for projects that enhance safety, security or capacity at airports as well as noise reduction, etc." That not only harms passengers who bike to the airport (I’ve done it) but also employees.
