It may not in Texas but it certainly does in ca.

From the article:
Yes, it is. In June, the Democratic Legislature agreed to fund the project out of the cap-and-trade program (for curbing carbon emissions). And in other good news, an appellate court recently overturned an earlier, lower court ruling forbidding California to sell $9 billion worth of state bonds for the project.

A few small things seem to have escaped the writer of idiotic article.

1. The project is now estimated to cost ~$100 Billion. So the $9B is a drop in the bucket. It’s only enough to build a train to nowhere between two tiny towns in the Central Valley.

2. The Appeal court ruling is being appealed to the CA Supremes. They can’t sell bonds with that appeal pending.

3. The Cap and tax program is also being challenged in court since it did not pass with the 2/3 majority required for a tax.

What is it about Leftists and trains?

California Gov. Jerry Brown is now thinking, “The heck with Washington.” He says that obtaining additional money to build the rail line is “well within the capability of the state of California.”

He’s a liar.

California is BROKE!

But then so is Washington
