Harry Reid: “We have places, such as at McCarran Airport, where, if we had additional help, we could move people into the airport…”

On the recordJune 12, 2003

We have some of our hub airports where, as the Senator has indicated, they have people standing around looking at each other because they are not having people coming in and out of the airport like we have at McCarran.
