How is Colorado funding a new passenger rail line to connect those on the East and West side of the Rockies? Probably with a sales tax. 61% of locals support a sales tax increase to fund the rail, and will be on the ballot in 2024 or 2025. The Legislature stepped in and established a Front Range Passenger Rail District with significant independent powers to help the process along. Development funding came from a grant from the Federal Railroad Administration.
