Lastly, I voted to secure critical funding for TX-24 infrastructure, including $40 million to fund the Department of Veterans Affairs and the National Center for Post‐traumatic Stress Disorder. It also included $5 million for the DFW Airport Brute Force Electric Central Utility Plant, $5 million for the DFW Airport Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting Station Consolidation, and $5 million for the DFW Airport New Snow and Ice Removal Equipment Storage Facility.
Voted Nay, 9 Mar 2022
Van Duyne voted against the part of the FY2022 spending bill holding DFW Airport projects. The next day she said she voted to secure that funding, listing three $5 million airport projects.
Van Duyne voted for the first House vote on the FY2022 omnibus, the security package her release describes, and against the second (roll call 66), which covered the remaining divisions. The next day her release said 'I voted to secure critical funding for TX-24 infrastructure' and listed three $5 million DFW Airport projects.
