I was proud to join Golden Triangle Regional Airport to celebrate another milestone for Mississippi and the First District. GTR recently completed a project adding 8,200 square feet of terminal space and the airport’s first jet bridge to better serve travelers.

Projects like this are proof that Mississippi continues to grow. We are attracting new businesses, creating jobs, strengthening our infrastructure, and creating new opportunities across our state.

A strong airport is a key part of a strong economy. It connects our communities, supports economic growth, and helps make our region more competitive. This expansion ensures the airport is better equipped to meet the demands of tomorrow.

The Golden Triangle is an economic engine for our state, and projects like this strengthen the industries, businesses, and communities that call this region home. This is about more than a new terminal—it is about strengthening Mississippi’s economy, creating opportunities for future growth, and showing that the Golden Triangle is open for business.
