The Senate release says Rep. Tom Tiffany joined a bipartisan, bicameral letter urging President Biden to support Minnesota and Wisconsin's federal funding application to rebuild the Blatnik Bridge. The letter described the bridge as a critical Duluth-Superior transportation link and said federal funding would replace structural elements, add a shared-use path, address interchange safety, and restore operations.

Tiffany took a concrete federal action by joining a bipartisan, bicameral letter urging President Biden to approve federal funding for the Blatnik Bridge replacement. The Biden Administration awarded more than $1 billion in early 2024 while Tiffany was still serving in Congress, and official project information shows the replacement is funded, contracted, and scheduled for construction. That satisfies the promised support and the funding outcome in the same federal term context.
