Are you familiar with the terms "Supremacy Clause" and "Federal Preemption"?
The mayor of Chicago seemed to have no problem with supremacy or preemption.
He destroyed an airport overnight and nothing happened, proving that anyone
can get away with it.
Wrong yet again.
The city was fined the maximum amount allowed at the time (the maximum
has since been increased from $1,100/day to $10,000/day) for closing
the airport without the required 30 day notice (the closing was legal,
the timing was not) as well as investigated for misappropriation of FAA
funds because of the early closing and had to repay over $1 million.
