High Speed Rail Lives to Fight Another Battle

High Speed Rail escaped the conference committee on House Bill 1, without the provision removing its ability to be granted the power of eminent domain.

The no votes by the conferees were: 

  • Otto
  • Ashby
  • Kolkhorst
  • Schwertner

More fights are on the horizon as Texas Central Railways seeks to aquire land and requisite funding to build the Dallas-Houstonn high speed rail.
