Bike the Border Act

This legislation, titled the "Bike the Border Act," mandates that the Commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) take necessary actions to effectively and vigorously facilitate non-motorized border crossings, including for bicycles and pedestrians, across the Gordie Howe International Bridge. This directive must be implemented within one year of the Act's enactment, aiming to expedite these specific types of crossings. Furthermore, the bill requires the Comptroller General of the United States to submit a report to Congress within 18 months. This report will review CBP's progress in handling non-motorized traffic, determine the effectiveness of their facilitation efforts, and provide recommendations. It will also suggest ways CBP can further enhance facilitation and identify potential incentives to encourage increased non-motorized traffic across the bridge.
