But its more about 9 equipment and the ongoing efforts by the faa to modernize the control towers. Last week there was an article in the a. P. It ran across the country and including in my district in las vegas. And the article was entitled union new airport towers must be remodeled before opening. In the article, mr. Rinaldi, you specifically identified the new control tower in las vegas saying it requires an overhaul before it can be operational. I reached out to our local controllers, our safety engineers and the faa because im concerned this overdue project is going to have to be delayed even further due to a failure by the faa.

So what i learned is our con
They were addment and they were une adamant and they were unequivocal. We cant have moments of silence when we see americans perish. As robin kelly, republican from illinois, said we cant just think about americans lives that are lost when its Mass Shootings.
