WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Representative Sam Graves (MO-06) made the following statement today after the Citizens Commission made its recommendation for the KCI airport:

“Today’s announcement is the beginning of a long discussion on the path forward for the KCI airport.  The Commission discovered many key facts, but also left us with many concerns and unanswered questions.  This process has produced information that only strengthens my belief that we are better served working to maintain the convenience and accessibility of our airport.”
