ACTION ALERT!

I NEED YOUR HELP TODAY!

Congress returns to Washington, DC this week. Friday is the deadline for passing a continuing resolution (CR) to avoid a government shutdown. Since spending bills must originate in the House, the Senate will consider the CR passed by the House two weeks ago.

 

The House bill eliminates the high-speed rail program, slashes Amtrak funding, and eliminates funding to expand transit. It even eliminates all un-obligated high-speed rail funds from the stimulus and the 2010 budget.

 

Please CALL your Senators and let them know that you want faster and more frequent trains, not less.
