Blocking access to an airport monitored by the FAA could be a federal crime.

RE: Blocking access to an airport monitored by the FAA could be a federal crime.

Yes and I believe blocking federal interstate highways is against federal law. Access required for defense and police as well as evacuation of citizens for storms or other emergencies or war. However it appears the states have to enforce this or allow it as a civil disobedience incident.
