S 5003: Rededicates the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Mid-Hudson bridge to Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt

This bill (S 5003) formally designates the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Mid-Hudson bridge as the "Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt Mid-Hudson Bridge" for ceremonial purposes only. It requires the New York State Bridge Authority to update highway signage to reflect this name, while clarifying that the bridge's official legal name remains unchanged.

This is a symbolic renaming with no substantive policy impact.
