Vote number 2008-400 $9.7B for Amtrak improvements and operation thru 2013
on Jun 11, 2008 regarding bill HR6003 Passenger Rail Investment and Improvement Act
Results: Bill passed, 311-104

Congressional Summary:
  • Authorizes appropriations for FY2009-FY2013 for Amtrak capital and operating grants; Amtrak repayment of long-term debt and capital leases; and the rail cooperative research program.
  • Authorizes grants for the Next Generation Corridor Train Equipment Pool Committee.

    Proponents argument for voting YEA: Rep. OBERSTAR: America is on the threshold of a "renaissance'' for intercity passenger rail that approaches the enthusiasm of the completion of the transcontinental railroad. Last year, Amtrak set a ridership record for the fifth year in a row, exceeding 25.8 million passengers. Its ticket revenues rose 11 percent to more than $1.5 billion, the third straight year of revenue growth. This record of achievement is even more impressive considering that for the past eight years Amtrak has contended with an Administration committed to its bankruptcy. Indeed, these achievements are occurring when there is a greater need than ever for alternatives to our congested highways and skies. To alleviate this congestion and strengthen our energy security, we need to invest in intercity passenger rail.

    Other countries already make an annual commitment to intercity passenger rail. In 2003 alone, France invested $10.6 billion in its rail system; Germany invested $12.4 billion; and the United Kingdom invested $7.8 billion. China plans to spend a total of $162 billion from 2006 through 2010 to expand its railway system. This bill authorizes $14 billion over 5 years:

    • $6.7 billion for capital grants
    • $3.0 billion for operating grants
    • $2.5 billion for 80% matching grants to States to pay for the capital costs of facilities
    • $1.75 billion to finance 11 authorized high-speed rail corridors
