White House Requests $4 Billion for Key Bridge Rebuild, Maui Fires, Disaster Relief
Jun 28, 2024, 05:33 PM
The White House has requested an additional $4 billion in funding from Congress to address various disaster needs, including the rebuilding of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, which collapsed in March after being struck by a cargo ship. The funding request also aims to cover other recent disasters, such as the Maui fires. The Biden administration's proposal includes $3.1 billion specifically for the Key Bridge rebuild and additional funds for the Coast Guard and Army Corps of Engineers. The administration is urging Congress to support this emergency funding package to ensure timely disaster response and infrastructure repair. The White House also urges Congress to fund 100% of the Key Bridge rebuild.
