Speaking as a former mayor who actually built a train station in my community in central Washington, I think local governments, state governments and the federal government should be integral. Moving our people, as well as our goods, in an efficient way is very important. As I said in my remarks, it's productive time. However you define “productivity”, whether you're sleeping with your grandchildren or actually moving men and women in the business sector back and forth so they can be productive, it's important. I think, from a society perspective, we all should be leaning into it.
