"Statement of Senator Boxer"
"We cannot afford to delay the implementation of positive train control and other life saving safety measures on our Nation's busiest commuter-freight rail corridors."
"It's impossible to talk about high-speed rail without, at the same time, talking about positive train control."
"Our high-speed rail in California is projected to save 12.7 million barrels of oil a year by 2030."
