STUPAK ANNOUNCES $726,409 FOR AIRPORTS IN ALPENA, DELTA AND CHIPPEWA COUNTIES
House.Gov ^ | March 19, 2010 | Office of Bart Stupak

WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Congressman Bart Stupak (D-Menominee) announced three airports in northern Michigan have received grants totaling $726,409 for airport maintenance and improvements. The funding was provided by the U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration.

“This federal funding will help these airports better provide critical services to communities in northern Michigan,” Stupak said. “I am pleased the FAA has made this investment in our local airports and the individuals and businesses they serve.”

Alpena County Regional Airport received a grant of $85,500 to acquire friction measuring equipment, specifically a decelermeter and tow vehicle, to replace equipment that has worn out.

Delta County Airport in Escanaba received a grant of $179,209 to install a 10 foot perimeter fence to enhance security and prevent wildlife from entering the airport.

The Chippewa County International Airport near Sault Ste. Marie received a grant of $461,700 to install lighted signs on Runway 16/34 and make repairs to the pavement to meet marking requirements and maintain structural integrity.

This funding is provided to the FAA through the regular federal appropriations process and is awarded through competitive grants.

Well, if Friday, it might not have anything to do with his vote. He could have gotten billions to switch, not a measely $726,409. Of course, we might learn of something more later.

Lots of fetuses and partial births to fund those airports! The people who are on the receiving end should be ashamed to accept the blood money. Democrats, the party of death.

If true how can a obvious bribe like this be considered legal?

Why, it was simply a coincidence.../s

Why didn’t he just take the $726,000 in a briefcase- or alternatively, a sack with a “$” imprinted on it?

That’s about a penny and a half for each of the 50 million babies killed in this country since 1973 by abortion. Life is cheap.
