The Quincy airport plays an important role in connecting the Tri State area with the rest of the country and this funding will ensure they have sound infrastructure for years to come. I applaud Secretary Chao for this strategic investment in the Quincy Regional Airport, and I will continue to work with her and the Trump Administration to strengthen Illinois\u2019 transportation system, especially in rural communities,\u201d said Rep. LaHood.\n\n\u201cQuincy Regional Airport is committed to providing and maintaining the extensive infrastructure necessary to support our many airport users. The airport has a major economic impact on the region, and it is important that we continue to invest in our infrastructure so we can provide a lasting impact for years to come. We could not accomplish this alone, which is why we are so grateful for our federal partners and the continuous support they provide to our airport and our region,\u201d said Quincy Regional Airport Director Sandy Shore.\n\n\u201cThe robust economy is enabling more passengers to travel by air so this Administration is investing billions of dollars in America\u2019s airports which will address safer operations, fewer airport delays, and greater ease of travel for air travelers,\u201d said U.S. Transportation Secretary Elaine L. Chao.\n\nRelated:\n\nQuincy Regional Airport to receive over $1M for runway reconstruction, rescue vehicle\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-06-27T23:43:09Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://lahood.house.gov/2019/11/rep-lahood-announces-9-million-grant-award-quincy-regional-airport"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8036359213292599, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
