This bill, known as the Michigan-Canada Partnership Act, aims to prevent federal interference with the opening and operation of the Gordie Howe International Bridge. Congress recognizes this bridge as a critical piece of United States transportation, trade, and national security infrastructure , connecting Detroit, Michigan, and Windsor, Ontario. It is vital for the busiest commercial land border crossing in North America, facilitating supply chains essential to manufacturing, agriculture, and energy production, and has received bipartisan support since its agreement in 2012. The legislation explicitly prohibits any federal official, including the President, from impeding the bridge's opening or attempting its closure, unless such action is approved by an Act of Congress or requested by the Governor of Michigan. It also imposes an affirmative duty on federal agencies with jurisdiction to take all necessary actions to ensure the bridge's timely opening and continuous operation. The bill further specifies that no federal official may delay or interfere through action or inaction, and allows the State of Michigan or any affected local government to seek judicial review to compel compliance with these provisions.
