[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mr. Toy: [QB] I think there is a good chance of repealing the micromanaging language from recent appropriations bills. Things like requiring food service to break even and limiting promotional fares. These provisions were slipped into bills at the last minute by a handful of Republicans. I also think the election offers a much greater chance to pass pro-Amtrak bills like S.1516, which has been languishing under Republican control. The message of this election is to get it done right. Democrats are now in a position where they must demonstrate they can deliver the goods where the Republicans failed. They'd be crazy not to give Amtrak, which polls consistently show has 60-70% popular support, a boost. [/QB][/QUOTE]
