With dreams of being faster than a speeding bullet, U.S. Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-Queens, LI) yesterday spearheaded a Congressional push to bring high-speed rail (HSR) to the country’s Northeast corridor.
In a letter fired off to U.S. Rep. Peter DeFazio (D-OR), chair of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, Suozzi led 22 members of Congress from seven states, including New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts and Maine, in urging authorization of the North Atlantic Rail Corporation (NARC) to receive federal funds to design, build, and oversee a high-speed rail (HSR) project across the Northeast.
