TRANSPORATION
For the last four years I have led the fight to defeat government rail in Florida. Experts from around the nation have concluded government rail is not the proper use of tax money in Florida because of our geographic diversity and great road network. Alternatives, like express buses, already exist and are far less expensive.
With our nation $15 trillion in debt we cannot afford to borrow another $1 trillion to build a high speed rail network. Commuter rail has been a failure in Florida with
Tri-Rail losing $60 million a year. I will not vote to approve any government rail system in Florida.
