Airline baggage would be able to cross the Canadian-U.S. border with less of a chance of an international incident if a bill from Sens. Roy Blunt (R-Mo.) and Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) is approved.

The change would will make travel between the neighboring countries much easier, the lawmakers said.
The House passed a similar version of the bill, which has been dubbed the No-Hassle Flying Act of 2012, this week.
