WASHINGTON, D.C. - Congressman Andy Harris, M.D. (MD-01), released the following statement regarding the two-year anniversary of the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse and concerns over rebuilding costs.
Statement from Congressman Harris:
"Two years have passed since the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge-a tragedy that took six lives and disrupted a vital transportation corridor in Baltimore. As plans for rebuilding lag behind schedule, the scale of the cost overruns is deeply concerning, particularly given that the initial state estimates have been exceeded 3-fold. It is clear this project requires stronger oversight and fiscal accountability. The company responsible for the collapse and its insurers should bear the cost of these damages, not Marylanders or American taxpayers."
