Just saw this:

“the benefits that will accrue to the State of Alaska and to the United States from the reconstruction of the Alaska Highway” from its border at Beaver Creek, Yukon Territory, to Haines Junction in Canada, and the Haines Cutoff Highway from Haines Junction in Canada to Haines, Alaska.

No it wouldn't. Make it even easier for foolish unprepared wannabes to reach us and put even more strain on resources when they need to be bailed out? Forget that!

This bill pays for the highway to be re-built / repaired, including the parts that are in Canada. I don't know how they estimated the cost, or what happens when it inevitably costs more than estimated. I doubt they discussed it with Canada yet, though most likely they'd take the money.
