Preserve Amtrak's leadership stability and funding for connectivity

To: Rep. Kiley, Sen. Padilla, Sen. Schiff

From: A constituent in Roseville, CA

March 20

The White House's decision to force out the CEO of Amtrak, the national passenger railroad service, raises concerns about maintaining stable leadership and adequate funding for this vital transportation system. Amtrak plays a crucial role in connecting communities across the country and providing an affordable, eco-friendly travel option. Frequent changes in top leadership can disrupt long-term planning and operational continuity. Furthermore, Amtrak relies on federal subsidies to operate many of its routes, especially those serving rural areas. Any cuts to Amtrak's funding could lead to service reductions, fare hikes, or the elimination of vital transportation links. I urge you to prioritize consistent leadership and robust funding for Amtrak to ensure the railroad can continue to meet the nation's mobility needs while promoting sustainability.
