Long-Distance Corridor Relief Act

This bill changes the rules for how the Secretary of Transportation selects intercity passenger rail corridors under the Corridor Identification and Development Program. Under current law, the Secretary considers committed or anticipated non-Federal funding (such as state or local money) for a corridor's operating or capital costs when making selections. The bill would bar the Secretary from considering that non-Federal funding for any corridor on a long-distance route. The funding factor would still apply to other corridors.
