USAToday: Little Rock airport to be renamed for Bill and Hillary Clinton (http://travel.usatoday.com/flights/post/2012/03/arkansas-airport-bill-clinton-/652012/1)

In an unanimous vote earlier today, the Little Rock Municipal Airport Commission move to rename the Little Rock National Airport to honor former President Bill Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. The official title will be the "Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport."

"Hillary and I are humbled by the Little Rock Airport Commission's decision this morning," President Bill Clinton says in a statement. "We are grateful for this honor and for all that the people of Arkansas have done for us. And we look forward to many happy landings at the airport in the years ahead."

"The Clintons continue to have a major impact on our state and our local economy, and we believe renaming our airport in their honor is a fitting way to recognize their service and their position in Arkansas and our nation's history," Little Rock Municipal Airport Commission Chairman Jim Daily says in a statement quoted by the Arkansas News.
