Blocks federal officials from stopping the Gordie Howe International Bridge from opening or operating.
This bill would stop federal officials, including the President, from getting in the way of the Gordie Howe International Bridge opening or staying open. It would also make federal agencies responsible for ensuring the bridge and its entry point start on time and keep working. This means Michigan and local governments could sue in court if federal actions threaten the bridge's use.
Currently, there is no specific federal law stopping federal officials from interfering with the Gordie Howe International Bridge. If this bill passes, federal officials would be prohibited from impeding its opening or operation, and federal agencies would be required to ensure its continuous functionality. This would also give Michigan and local governments the power to sue in federal court to enforce these rules.
