What are people’s thoughts on the spending plan and the sale of our rail? On the one hand, it would help address some of our infrastructure and maintenance needs. On the other, it could end up like Chicago’s sale of parking meters

Right now we get about $25M each year for the leases and tax credit from the rail. The sale would net us $1.625B for maintenance projects and the spending plan is for $250M over the next 10 years

I’ve received plenty of mailers to vote yes, but it makes me extremely hesitant when a publicly owned infrastructure is being sold to Norfolk Southern (the ones who had the big E. Palestine derailment)
