Today, Governor Brown signed the California High Speed Rail Bill. High speed rail is about more than building a rail line to connect Southern and Northern California - it’s about a vision of new transit options, improved safety along our rail corridors, a cleaner and greener environment, and most importantly: new jobs.

This project can create 20,000 jobs a year over the course of the initial construction, and an average of 66,000 jobs a year over the next 15 years.
