Message from the high-speed and intercity passenger rail caucus:
Hello, and welcome to our website. We hope this website serves as a resource for high-speed and intercity passenger rail, and a connection to the work that is happening in the US Congress to make high-speed and intercity passenger rail a central part of American infrastructure. On this website you will find a variety of resources to learn about high-speed and intercity passenger rail and the benefits of a modern rail system will provide to everyday Americans.
Please explore to read:
- In-depth reports about the progress of high-speed rail and the befits to communities around the country.
- The status of legislation addressing high-speed and intercity passenger rail, and other Congressional action around the issue.
- Specific examples of how a modern rail infrastructure will help the United States address issues such as congestion, economic development and global warming.
- Updates on specific passenger rail projects around the country.
Further, through this website and our Facebook page and YouTube channel, you will be able to connect with Members of Congress and other Americans who are interested in building the high-speed and intercity passenger rail network of the future.
You can also use our website to contact the caucus.
We look forward to growing this website, and our caucus along with you.
Sincerely,
Rep. Louise Slaughter and Sen. Frank Lautenberg
