"Uncertain Timeline for Key Bridge Reopening as Cleanup Begins"

TL;DR
The cleanup effort to reopen the Port of Baltimore following the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge is underway, with the Navy mobilizing heavy lifting equipment to remove debris from the water. The timeline for reopening the port remains uncertain, impacting thousands of jobs and prompting Maryland lawmakers to draft emergency legislation for income replacement. Four individuals remain missing and presumed dead, while federal support, including an initial $60 million in emergency funding and a pledge from President Biden to cover the entire reconstruction cost, is incoming.
