摘要：	The governors of Ohio and Kentucky are jointly pursuing up to $2 billion in federal funding to build a new bridge over the Ohio River between Cincinnati, Ohio, and Covington, Ky. Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine and Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear held a joint news conference February 28 announcing they were signing a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to work together on the project, which seeks funding to build a new companion bridge to the west of the Brent Spence Bridge. "I think we all understand the national significance of this bridge," DeWine said. "The steps that we are taking today, the documents that we will be signing, we believe will position us in a perfect position to get the money that we need and to start construction on this bridge." The funding sought is part of the bipartisan federal infrastructure bill, which includes at least $39 billion for bridge projects. The memorandum also directs transportation officials in both states to begin preparations for construction. A more detailed interstate agreement will be signed later this year.
