The Laredo 4/5 International Bridge has received its presidential permit, marking a significant milestone for border infrastructure. This approval is a result of bipartisan efforts led by Senator Ted Cruz and other lawmakers to streamline the permit process for Texas-Mexico border bridge projects. Representative Henry Cuellar announced the White House's approval, congratulating Judge Tijerina and the Webb County Commissioner’s Court. The bridge project is expected to generate thousands of high-paying jobs and billions in new investments, benefiting both Texas and the broader U.S. economy. Representative Monica De La Cruz called the permit a win for Texas and a win for America.
