August 10, 2023
“I was pleased to support $60 million in state funding announced today for the Albany International Airport that is now set to move forward with a needed terminal enhancement project. This substantial investment marks the largest it’s ever received to date. This redesign initiative is poised to revolutionize the airport, enhancing technology, concessions, and travel accessibility. Notably, it will boast amenities like a children's play area and a neurosensory room catering to those with sensory sensitivities. Furthermore, it's worth mentioning that the project will be carried out with the expertise of union labor. Without a doubt, this endeavor stands as a remarkable achievement benefitting both our community.”
