News Releases

WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) today announced Kansas airports will receive $53 million in grants from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) through the Phase III Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act.

“Americans around the country are doing their part to stop the spread of the virus by limiting their travel and staying home,” said Sen. Moran. “While reducing air travel is important to stop the spread of the virus, it has caused significant losses for our airports. Whether large or small, Kansas airports play an important role in the commerce and travel of our state. I advocated strongly for the inclusion of airport relief in the CARES Act and am glad to see critical resources being provided for Kansas airports. While this can’t replace the usual business of these airports, these grants will work to alleviate the hardships currently felt within the industry.”
