Tennessee to Rename Airport After Dolly Parton | Spokane News

Tennessee is poised to rename Nashville International Airport in honor of Dolly Parton, a musical icon born in the state who rose from humble roots to become one of the best-selling artists ever. Governor Bill Lee champions the move, saying her spirit and music perfectly embody Tennessee’s soul — but the airport authority’s current policy, which requires nominees to be deceased for at least two years, could block the tribute. A crucial meeting on September 17th will decide whether to bend the rules for a legend who’s still alive and thriving.
