"Delaware Senator Dares to Utter the Word Transit”

http://www.streetsblog.org/2008/05/07/Delaware-senator-dares-to-utter-the-word-transit/

I did not know that Carter, like Biden, rides Amtrak.

We need leaders like Carter. Leaders need supporters, and Amtrak supporters should puff Carter when they can.

His speech provides a good excuse for writing a letter to your senators and representatives, Dear x: Why are you not supporting Senator Tom Carter's call for investment in Amtrak in his recent Senate speech where he said . . . .[pick anything in the speech]

Core political support exists in this country for major Amtrak expansion and spending. It just hasn't been brought together.

Good starting point, but where does Senator Carter live? In the NORTHEAST CORRIDOR -- how does he feel about the LD's?

(I didn't read the entire speech, so I apologoize if he mentioned the LD's later)

Senator is named Carper, not Carter, if someone is doing a search for his office number or the like.
