A deal has been reached in a federal spending package that would include the full cost of the Francis Scott Key Bridge rebuild and avert a government shutdown.

In October, the Department of Justice announced that the owner and operator of the cargo ship will have to pay more than $100 million to the United States. However, that money will not cover any damages for the reconstruction of the Francis Scott Key Bridge.

U.S. Senators Ben Cardin and Chris Van Hollen (both D-Md.) say Congress covering the cost of the bridge will allow it to be built as quickly as possible.
