President Joe Biden toured the collapsed Francis Scott Key bridge in Baltimore, Maryland, on Friday, pledging government support in rebuilding the span and reopening the harbor to full capacity.
"I'm here to say your nation has your back and I mean it," Biden said. "We're going to move heaven and earth to rebuild this bridge as rapidly as humanly possible."
The bridge was destroyed in the early morning of March 26 when a cargo ship lost power and collided with a support structure. The span collapsed within seconds, killing six construction workers who were on the bridge at the time.
