San Francisco – Speaker Nancy Pelosi today announced that the Department of Transportation has allocated $250 million in fiscal year 2020 Capital Investment Grant funds to the San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit's (BART) Core Capacity project. BART currently has the capacity to operate a maximum of 24 trains per hour in each direction through the existing Transbay Tube between San Francisco and Oakland.
Congressional Republicans have been caught red-handed promoting the American Rescue Plan they voted unanimously against. Reps. Madison Cawthorn, Glenn Grothman, Lee Zeldin are the latest Republicans busted for ‘voting no but taking the dough.'
Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy bet his house on House Republicans' unanimous opposition to an overwhelmingly popular, bipartisan rescue plan to put vaccines in arms, money in pockets, children back in school safely, and people back in jobs. And his Members have been hearing about it back home.
Now he can tell them he feels their pain.
