Rep. Buddy Carter (R-GA) called for more fiscal responsibility amid the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, Maryland.
Carter appeared on Sunday Morning Futures after crews removed the first piece of the collapsed bridge from the Patapsco River on Saturday in an effort to reopen Baltimore’s port. It remains to be seen how much it will cost to rebuild the bridge.
“Yes, it needs to be fixed immediately. There’s no question about that. It’s going to be a big impact on our economy,” Carter said. “However, when we get into this, we need to look at a number of different things. First of all, what’s the responsibility of the shipping company? What’s the responsibility of the insurance company? And what about funds that are already out there, particularly in the infrastructure bill?”
