Ultimately, the bill became law, and the funding was allocated,” said Congressman Higgins. “My office will continue to advocate for the advancement of Louisiana projects that aim to provide the necessary tools to improve our local airports and infrastructure so that Southwest Louisiana can advance its economic prosperity.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T01:01:09Z |
