Mr. Grant, you mentioned the ACAP program earlier. As a former mayor, I can attest to the importance of this program. The reality is that funding for ACAP has been stalled for decades at about $38 million per year.

I understand you're advocating an increase to $95 million per year. What's that number based on, and what would that kind of stable permanent funding allow small regional airports to do in their operations?
