SR 122 Michigan Senate · 2023-2024 Regular Session

A resolution to urge Congress to fund the construction of a new air traffic control tower for the Gerald R. Ford International Airport.

This Senate resolution urges Congress to provide funding for building a new air traffic control tower at the Gerald R. Ford International Airport in Michigan. The bill highlights that the airport's current tower is over 60 years old and ranks among the oldest in major U.S. markets, while the airport itself is a rapidly growing commercial hub. By transmitting copies of the resolution to federal leaders and Michigan's congressional representatives, the measure formally requests financial support to replace the aging infrastructure. The text does not mandate funding but serves as a formal recommendation to address the facility's need for modernization.
