Dolly Parton Airport Tribute Gains Steam as Lawmakers Endorse Renaming Effort

A Change.org petition to rename Nashville International Airport after the late Dolly Parton has attracted widespread support following her death on Aug. 25. The petition, originally launched by comedian Lydia Popvich, has received endorsements from Tennessee State Senator Todd Warner and Nashville City Council member Russ Bradford. Bradford has pledged to sponsor a resolution asking the airport authority to consider the name change.
