I guess the new ALPA President was also a little irked by the FAA response to take care of the controllers on this "new" rest issue.

Wow, that was fast

Just how many people have had to die over the years? Just how many NTSB reports have we read which cite, "crew fatigue" as a contributing factor? How long has it taken for the FAA to get their asses in gear about updating scheduling rules for flight crews? Oh yeah, and we're STILL not working under those new rules either.
Now, a few douche controllers take a nap, no accidents happen, no one is hurt or killed. But HOLY SHIT! We better change these work rules right away so this doesn't happen again!
Are you f*cking kidding me? I guess we know who are the favorite children in the eyes of the FAA...
