Rick Larsen actually said...

Thank you, Chairman LoBiondo, for calling today's hearing on the state of U.S. airports.

we are looking at about $100 billion in the next 4 or 5 years in infrastructure needs throughout the United States.

I look forward to hearing from him today, in particular about the needs and challenges Sea-Tac faces.

This hearing provides an opportunity for us to better understand how Congress can help airports satisfy their growing capital needs.
