More federal help for local airports
This bill would let more public airports get federal help to pay for projects. It would allow airports receiving Essential Air Service payments under Subchapter II of Chapter 417 to qualify. It would also allow airports in U.S. territories that were eligible points under section 419 of the Federal Aviation Act of 1958 on October 24, 1978 to qualify. If enacted, this would mainly help local communities, travelers, and small businesses that rely on those airports.
