A bipartisan group of lawmakers from Nevada and California are asking the Biden administration to fast-track federal funds for the high-speed rail train planned to travel between the Los Angeles area and Las Vegas.

The group sent a letter today signed by all of Nevada's elected federal lawmakers and four California House members.

The lawmakers are on board with the Brightline West company's proposal to spend more than $10 billion to lay tracks along the 15 Freeway.

When completed, the train will have stations near the Las Vegas Strip, Rancho Cucamonga, Apple Valley and Hesperia.

2. So, Joe is not too old and out of touch when it comes to asking for federal funding.

These same people will get the funding for their train and then go out on the campaign trail and say Biden is doing nothing
