Heritage Fdn: Senate Nearly Nixes Railroad to Nowhere

Bad news from the Hill: an amendment introduced by Senator Tom Coburn challenging the Railroad to Nowhere has been defeated by a 49-48 vote.

Voting against $700M for the Railroad to Nowhere: Harry Reid, Senate Democratic Leader

Voting in favor of $700M for the Railroad to Nowhere: Senator Bill Frist, Senate Republican Leader.
