Former two-term Maryland Governor Larry Hogan is actively lobbying fellow Republicans in Congress to support federal funding for the reconstruction of the Francis Scott Key Bridge, which tragically collapsed recently. The collapse, which occurred after a container ship collided with a pillar, resulted in the presumed loss of six construction workers.
President Biden has swiftly committed to covering the entire cost of rebuilding the nearly 50-year-old bridge, with a significant portion of the funding expected to come from the Federal Highway Administration's emergency fund.
