Arkansas Congressman Rick Crawford and Federal Highway Administrator Shailen Bhatt discuss the federal funding implications for the reconstruction of the collapsed Francis Scott Key Bridge, including its previous non interstate status, the recent interstate designation, the potential 90 percent federal cost share under the emergency relief program, and the precedent for authorizing a 100 percent federal share for catastrophic bridge collapses at a House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee hearing on the federal response, investigation and replacement mission in the Patapsco River where the container ship Dali struck the Baltimore Francis Key Bridge and caused its collapse seven weeks earlier.
