California Democrats Ask Buttigieg for Half a Billion Dollars for High-Speed Rail Before Trump Takes Office

California Democrats Ask Buttigieg for Half a Billion Dollars for High-Speed Rail Before Trump Takes Office

The request for money for high-speed rail is just one last-minute request California Democrats have sent to the White House. Last week, the Biden administration approved Newsom’s plan to eliminate sales of gas-powered cars by 2035 — despite the fact that sales of electric vehicles, even in California, are far too slow to meet the target. President-elect Trump is expected to repeal that policy as soon as he takes office, along with other federal electric vehicle mandates.
