Fiscally Responsible St. Croix River Crossing Authorization Act - Authorizes the head of an appropriate federal agency to authorize and assist in the construction of a new St. Croix River bridge crossing between Minnesota and Wisconsin, provided mitigation measures are implemented to offset environmental impacts identified in the 2010 report prepared by the National Park Service.

House Republican Conference Summary

The summary below was written by the House Republican Conference, which is the caucus of Republicans in the House of Representatives.

No summary available.

House Democratic Caucus Summary

The House Democratic Caucus does not provide summaries of bills.

So, yes, we display the House Republican Conference’s summaries when available even if we do not have a Democratic summary available. That’s because we feel it is better to give you as much information as possible, even if we cannot provide every viewpoint.

We’ll be looking for a source of summaries from the other side in the meanwhile.

United States Code

The United States Code is the compilation of permanent laws enacted by Congress. Temporary and other non-permanent laws do not appear in the United States Code. (About half of the United States Code is the law itself, called positive law. The other half is merely a compilation of the laws but has no legal significance.)
