Bill Summary
A BILL To facilitate non-motorized border crossings across the Gordie Howe International Bridge, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill, titled the "Bike the Border Act," mandates that the Commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the agency responsible for managing border crossings, must take action within one year of the bill's enactment to ensure that non-motorized traffic, such as bicycles and pedestrians, can cross the Gordie Howe International Bridge efficiently and without unnecessary delays. Additionally, the Comptroller General of the United States will be required to submit a report to relevant Congressional committees within 18 months, assessing CBP's progress in facilitating these non-motorized crossings, determining if the facilitation has been effective, and offering recommendations for improvement and potential incentives to encourage more bicycle and pedestrian traffic.
