The Biden Administration has called on Congress to pass a final COVID-19 relief bill to fund vaccine distribution and help state and local governments maintain essential services. Senate leaders, who have said transportation and transit will benefit from this legislation, are targeting passage by the end of March 2021. 

Based on conversations with congressional allies, Rail Passengers believes this legislation will allow us to restore daily service to Amtrak's long-distance routes, maintain Amtrak's State-supported and commuter trains, support the Northeast Corridor, and provide a critical lifeline for public transit agencies across the U.S.

We need your help! Please call your member of congress asking them to support passenger rail and bring back service!
