[July 16, 2020]
Congressman Darin LaHood (R-IL) today applauded
the U.S. Department of Transportation and the Federal Aviation
Administration for awarding over $16.5 million in funding for
Illinois’ 18th Congressional District airports. The funding was
authorized by Congress in the Coronavirus Preparedness and Response
Supplemental Appropriations (CARES) Act.

 “The COVID—19 pandemic is leaving a profound
impact on communities across central and west-central Illinois,”
said Rep. LaHood. “Through no fault of their own, these airports
have lost significant business in the last two months, and Congress
acted decisively to deliver relief to them in the CARES Act. I am
pleased that this federal funding is being delivered swiftly to our
local communities. In Congress, I’ll continue to work with my
colleagues to bolster our response to the coronavirus in Illinois
and support those in need during this challenging time.”
