Rep. Rick Larsen, WA-02, today announced $4.19 million in federal grants for Paine Field. The Federal Aviation Administration investment will fund safety and facility upgrades at the airfield.

"We cannot have a big league economy with little league infrastructure," Larsen said. "As the top Democrat on the House Aviation Subcommittee, I am fighting for robust transportation funding so we can continue investing in projects like this one that contribute to a strong economy. Smart investments in our transportation infrastructure create jobs and improve safety for pilots, passengers and nearby communities."
