Arkansas State Sen. Jason Rapert (R) has proposed a bill that would remove the Clinton name from the Little Rock airport.

According to a report by Reuters, the bill does not directly mention Bill or Hillary Clinton Hillary Diane Rodham ClintonHillicon Valley: FBI chief says Russia is trying to interfere in election to undermine Biden | Treasury Dept. sanctions Iranian government-backed hackers The Hill's Campaign Report: Arizona shifts towards Biden | Biden prepares for drive-in town hall | New Biden ad targets Latino voters FBI chief says Russia is trying to interfere in election to undermine Biden MORE, but would prohibit public buildings or civil works from being named for anyone living or who served in public office in the 10 years prior to the structure's completion. However, the author of the bill did mention the former president while speaking.

“You have a president who was impeached for having an affair with an intern in the Oval Office and then disbarred,” Rapert said.

Clinton was impeached in 1998 and later acquitted in a Senate trial for lying about a sexual relationship with White House intern Monica Lewinsky.

Rapert, whose Senate district does not include Little Rock, said he drafted the bill after “several Arkansans across the state” had expressed to him their “discomfort” with naming its largest airport, Clinton National Airport, after the former first family.
