To amend title 49, United States Code, to clarify airport revenue use of local general sales taxes, and for other purposes.

# Summary of HR 6673 **What the Bill Does** This bill would clarify federal rules about how local airports can use money collected from general sales taxes in their communities. Currently, there are questions about whether airports can spend these local sales tax revenues on certain projects and operations. The bill aims to clear up this confusion by amending federal transportation law (Title 49 of the U.S.

Code). **Who It Affects** The bill primarily affects local airports and the communities they serve, particularly regarding how airport authorities can fund their operations and improvements. It may also impact local governments that collect sales taxes and decide how those funds are distributed between different services. **Current Status** HR 6673 was introduced by Representative David Scott (D-GA) and is currently in committee, meaning it has not yet been debated or voted on by the full House of Representatives. Without additional details about the specific provisions, it's unclear exactly what changes the bill proposes or how significantly it would affect airport funding practices across the country.
