Airport board unanimously votes to rename Nashville airport after Dolly Parton

The Metropolitan Nashville Airport Authority unanimously voted 6-0 to rename the Nashville airport in honor of the late music icon Dolly Parton. While the final name remains to be determined, the decision follows Parton's death in August. This move has seen Republican-dominated state officials and Democrat-controlled city government unite, despite an ongoing and contentious battle between the two political entities for overall control of the city's airport operations and management in Tennessee.
