- W582724056 abstract "This article outlines the new Passenger Rail Investment Reform Act being sponsored by the current administration and headed by Secretary of Transportation Norman Mineta. The prompting for this act is what the administration describes as the wasting of $29 billion on Amtrak since 1971. The reforms suggested by the administration generally are the increase in funding from state sources to 100%, forcing states involved in interstate commuting to form compacts to fund the rails, and the separation of Amtrak into three entities to improve management. The article relates that while it is the administration’s presupposition that Amtrak should be privately operated as a privately held entity (and this has led to Amtrak’s radical budget shortfalls), the railroad is used, in practice, as public transportation and thus should be funded accordingly. The article gives as examples in contrast to the “wasted” $29 billion on Amtrak (over the last 30 years), the recent $283.9 billion funded for highways by SAFETEA-LU and the $8 billion spent in post-September 11 bailouts for airline companies." @default.
