Members of Chicago's Aviation Committee will meet at City Hall Wednesday to discuss some airlines' checked bag fee.

The committee will consider a proposal by Alderman Sandi Jackson. It says American Airlines and other airlines that charge for checked bags violate city rules.

Jackson says the fees are discriminatory, because they do not apply to business-class, first-class or international travelers.
