Breitbart News: U.S. House votes to stop funding California high-speed rail (Fine idea, and yet Denham pushes for another amnesty, even as Modesto, California, Denham's home, is turning into a teeming Third World anthill.)


U.S. House votes to stop funding California high-speed rail

     tma_sierrahills would take it as a personal favor if anyone would be willing to print this photo and take a felt-tip pen and blacken-in one of 'Representative' Jeff Denham's front teeth--not because he is wrong on this high-speed rail boondoggle, but because of his tireless efforts to pass yet another amnesty, to please the insatiable needs of Central Valley Big Ag for an endless supply of meek slave-wage labor. 

The Republican-controlled U.S. House of Representatives passed legislation Tuesday to stop federal funding for high-speed rail in California.
The action is largely ceremonial, however, as the California High-Speed Rail Authorityhas not requested additional federal funding this year above the stimulus grants the agency is already spending.
That said, a rebuke by withdrawing additional federal money by the House certainly hurts the project’s future funding prospects.
“I’m pleased to have the support of so many of my House colleagues who recognize that we shouldn’t be spending any more taxpayer money on a project without a future,” Rep. Jeff Denham, R-Modesto, said in a statement.
In response, the authority called the House action “just another ploy to delay the project.” . . .
