Thank you for the link. A lot of information.

The article closes with:

“Meanwhile, some of the biggest nonlegislative proponents of the train continued to sharply criticize Scott’s decision as they cheered efforts to work around it.

“At least today I’m not using four-letter words,” said Rich Templin, vice president of one of the state’s largest labor unions, the AFL-CIO, which said it backed the idea because it believes the construction and the train would create jobs. “This is a tragedy, a disaster of unmitigated proportions.”

I saw Bill Nelson on the tube, Friday IIRC. He was promising to help the feds shove that rail system down the state of Florida's throat.

Sure looked to me like Nelson wasn't representing Floridians. Nelson was representing the federal government.
