The House of Representatives announced this week the formation of a Quiet Skies caucus that will join the fight against airplane noise.
U.S. Reps. Grace Meng (D-Bayside), Steve Israel (D-Melville) and Joe Crowley (D-Jackson Heights) will represent Queens in the caucus, which also has a handful of representatives from California, Illinois, Florida, Minnesota and Massachusetts. The members said the caucus will work to raise awareness about airplane noise as well as fight for solutions to concerns the officials say their constituents have.
