A U.S. Senate committee chairman has called for the FAA to review millions of dollars in federal grants to DIA after the city rejected a contract with an aviation company that works with ICE. In a letter to Denver Mayor Mike Johnston dated March 11, Sen. Ted Cruz said a City Council vote late last year — rejecting a contract with Key Lime Air — violated DIA’s grant agreements with the FAA. “Simply put, a federally funded airport cannot deny a lease to a tenant simply because it does not like that the tenant has a (contractual) relationship with Federal law enforcement,” Cruz wrote. 📝: Elliott Wenzler, The Denver Post #Colorado #Denver #DIA #ICE #immigration
