The energy coalition: Power The Future, a national nonprofit organization that advocates for American energy jobs

High Speed Rail is a “myth” because:

  • it is included in the Green New Deal’s
  • our country is spread out, it is not an alternative to air
  • Rail loses money in the US
    • NYC subway annual deficit $244 million
    • DC annual deficit $290 million
    • California Gov. Gavin Newsom suspended high speed rail in California
    • Amtrack annual loss $168 million
  • it will take away energy jobs
