Key Republicans are embracing a major spending initiative outlined in President Obama’s State of the Union address.

Two top members of the House Transportation Committee said they will push the president’s initiative seeking to give 80 percent of Americans access to high-speed rail over te course of the next 25 years.

“I believe it’s good for America to develop a high-speed rail corridor in the Northeast corridor,” Rep. Bill Shuster (R-Pa.), the chairman of the railroad subcommittee, said according to the Connecticut Post. “It’s a place we have to start, we have to accomplish it, because then I believe all of America, in the various corridors around the country, will want high-speed rail if they see success here.”

Rep. John Mica (R-Fla.), the chairman of the whole committee, also said Friday he was “pleased that President Obama has helped to launch a system for improved passenger rail service for our nation.”

The pair warned Obama to seek more private investments in the project, and encouraged the administration to be more focused in where it will deploy high-speed rail service.

Still, the pair’s support could enable cooperation between the Republican House and the Obama administration on one of the president’s major initiatives.

“Within 25 years, our goal is to give 80 percent of Americans access to high-speed rail,” Obama said in his address. “This could allow you to go places in half the time it takes to travel by car.”

While I firmly believe our nation would be better off if it had not torn up so many railroad tracks and used rails instead of highways for industrial transportation this is not what high speed rail is for.  This would amount to transportation for people on rails and transportation for goods and equipment on the highways, topsy turvy to what it should be.
