In The Weird

++The Passenger Rail Reform and Investment Act passed the House 316-101.

++Then the House voted on a Republican Amendment to eliminate all federal funding for AMTRAK, another target for the last decades.
The vote was 147 to 272 defeating the amendment. All yea votes were Republican.

++Let's say it passed and then somehow made it through the Senate. This amendment would have killed all national passenger rail service.

++Weird idea.
