House would back plans for a new interstate in southern Ohio

The House of Representatives would formally recognize the importance of the Interstate Highway System and support building a new interstate in southern Ohio. This could bring economic growth and better transportation to communities south of Columbus, including areas near the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant. However, this resolution does not set aside money or create new rules.

What Would Change

Today, there is no formal federal support for a new interstate in southern Ohio. If this bill passes, the House of Representatives would formally recognize the value of the Interstate Highway System and express its support for planning and developing a new interstate route going south from Columbus, Ohio, through the southern part of the state.

Key Provisions

Recognizes the importance of the Interstate Highway System, which spans 46,876 miles across the U.S.
Recognizes that a new interstate could bring economic growth and boost national security to a region.
Supports the planning, designing, and development of an interstate in southern Ohio, extending south from Columbus.
