Pop-Off Politics: New Airport Director has a big task

HOUSTON – ‘Pop-Off Politics’ shows you how your elected officials in Houston are allocating public funds. It’s important to know what they are spending your money on.

Over the years, KPRC 2 Investigates exposed several issues within the Houston Airport System under the direction of former Director Mario Diaz, who has no relation to KPRC 2 Investigator Mario Diaz.

Among the extensive list of investigations, several standout cases have left a lasting impact, including scandals involving forged documents, questionable project management, and conflicts of interest.

Wednesday marks a significant transition with the confirmation of a new Houston Airport System Director.

Stepping into the spotlight is Jim Szczesniak, whose appointment as interim director on February 3rd has sparked anticipation for notable changes within the $1.4 Billion Houston Airport System.
