Sen. Eric Schmitt joins Annie Frey to break down the Modern Skies Act and huge upgrades for Lambert.
If you've flown out of St. Louis recently, you know our aviation infrastructure needs a serious reality check. Senator Eric Schmitt is taking the lead to completely modernize our airspace and transform Lambert International Airport into a world-class, single-terminal hub. From replacing decades-old air traffic control technology to expanding St. Louis’s footprint as the defense tech capital of the United States, Sen. Schmitt is focused on bringing real, tangible results to Missouri.
He also breaks down the massive win of securing 7,000 new advanced Boeing manufacturing jobs for the region and explains why cracking down on violent crime with an influx of permanent FBI agents is critical to making St. Louis thrive again. It's time to stop settling and start building.
Key Takeaways:
* Why the FAA's outdated air traffic control systems need a massive 21st-century tech overhaul.
* The bold vision to revitalize Lambert Airport into a streamlined, modern facility.
* How Missouri secured 7,000 new defense jobs to cement STL as a national tech powerhouse.
