U.S. Sen. Bob Menendez, D-N.J., a ranking member of the Senate’s transit subcommittee, applauded the inclusion of critical funding to keep the Gateway infrastructure project moving in the federal spending bill that passed Congress on Thursday.
Menendez fought to secure $650 million in Amtrak Northeast Corridor funding, a portion of which will be dedicated to Gateway, and an additional $130.1 million in transit formula grants that can be used to advance the project.
