RailPAC’s Senate Joint Resolution is Adopted by Both Houses

This was our first attempt for many years to obtain legislative support for our position re the National Network interstate trains.  It was heavily amended by Assembly staff and some of the stronger language removed.  I would have pushed back on some of the changes but we had only two weeks to line up support before the session ended at the end of August.  It’s still a useful statement and a powerful contribution in the fight for the National Network.
