The U.S. Senate approved a measure to permit the use of Airport Improvement Program (AIP) funds to provide incentives for the early completion of airport projects. Passed by unanimous consent on September 28, the Expedited Delivery of Airport Infrastructure Act of 2021, H.R.468, now heads to the White House for President Joe Biden’s signature. Introduced by the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee and aviation subcommittee Republican leaders Reps. Sam Graves (Missouri) and Garret Graves (Louisiana), respectively, the Airport Infrastructure Act was approved by the House in June 2021.
