Airports Get a Billion in Infrastructure Funding

The FAA announced the aviation recipients of $1 billion in grants from the bipartisan infrastructure law passed last year. There are 85 airports across the country that will receive the funding to repair, maintain and improve their infrastructure. Airports mentioned by the administration include Pittsburgh International, which will get $20 million for a new terminal; Orlando, which will receive $50 million for new gates and ADA improvements; DFW, which will use $35 million in grants to build a carbon-neutral power plant to run the airport; and Flint, Michigan, which will use its grant of $3.5 million for a new roof at its Bishop International Airport.
