Hotline #1,368
September 20, 2024
Summer is still hanging on, and the Association staff grinding away. Jam packed #HotlineFriday this week as we pay our respects to a longtime advocate, breakdown the National Academies study on long trains, and report on Amtrak bills from House T&I.
"When [NARP] comes to Washington, you help embolden us in our efforts to continue the progress for passenger rail. And not just on the Northeast Corridor. All over America! High-speed rail, passenger rail is coming to America, thanks to a lot of your efforts! We’re partners in this. ... You are the ones that are going to make this happen. Do not be dissuaded by the naysayers. There are thousands of people all over America who are for passenger rail and you represent the best of what America is about!"
