Airports Council International-North America (ACI-NA) on March 7, welcomed the announcement of the Senate Democrats' Jobs and Infrastructure Plan for America's Workers that calls for a $40 billion federal investment in aviation infrastructure.
"ACI-NA has long called for congressional action to help address the $100 billion in infrastructure needs facing airports large and small all across the country," said ACI-NA President and CEO Kevin M. Burke. "We appreciate that this plan recognizes the urgent need to rebuild and expand our terminals, gates, and runways to improve the passenger experience and spur new air service competition."
