House Democrats probe if billionaire Matthew Moroun influenced Trump’s threat to delay the Gordie Howe Bridge opening, citing alleged improper influence.
House Democrats are investigating whether billionaire Matthew Moroun influenced President Trump’s threat to delay the opening of the Gordie Howe International Bridge, demanding records of communications between Moroun, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, and the Trump administration.
The probe follows a meeting between Lutnick and Moroun before Trump’s social media post insisting the U.S. be compensated.
Moroun, owner of the rival Ambassador Bridge and a major Republican donor, has long opposed the new bridge.
Democrats allege his influence may have improperly shaped policy for personal gain, while Michigan officials and eight Democratic senators urge the bridge’s timely opening, citing its economic importance.
Prime Minister Mark Carney says he spoke with Trump and expects resolution.
