HB 1656, Rep. Tom Dent (R-Moses Lake), is stuck on second reading in the Senate and needs your help. The bill creates a new revolving loan program to support infrastructure improvements at small public airports.

The Community Aviation Revitalization Loan program would be administered by Washington State Department of Transportation’s Aviation Division, with oversight from a task force that would include a member representing Washington cities.

AWC supports this new potential funding source for small municipal airports.

If this bill is important to you, please reach out to your Senator today and let them know you would like to see a vote on the bill today.
