Garcia Announces $12 Million Award For Commuter Rail Improvement 

Congressman Mike Garcia, R-Santa Clarita, has secured $12,525,834 in federal funding from the Department of Transportation (DOT) for the Southern California Regional Rail Authority, a portion of which is allocated for projects located in Simi Valley.

The program provides funding to eligible commuter rail authorities for the construction of projects for the elimination of hazards at railway-highway crossings.

“I am pleased that the Department of Transportation is investing in commuter rail safety improvement here in Simi Valley,” Garcia said. “I have a long track record of fighting to improve infrastructure in our community, including securing $3 million in last year’s Appropriations package to go to the Antelope Valley Metrolink Line Track for rehabilitation efforts. I’m proud to advocate for this necessary funding that will directly impact our community by improving safety at public railway-highway crossings in Simi Valley.”

The Commuter Authority Rail Safety Improvement (CARSI) Grants Program aims to improve safety at public railway-highway crossings.

  1. Mike Garcia for rail safety, against women safety!

  2. Mike Garcia voted to decertify a free, fair democratic presidential election simply because his party did not like the outcome. Hence, by doing so, Garcia was willing to void the votes of 81 million Americans who voted for Biden, interfered with the peaceful transition of power, subvert our Constitution and support the armed, violent mob who rioted and looted the Capitol Building only hours before he cast his vote. Garcia is a FRAUD, he took an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States from ALL enemies; foreign and domestic. He did neither. This coward does NOT deserve to hold public office anywhere. Garcia supports anti-American right-wing extremists such as Q-Anon, Proud Boys, Oath Keepers and 3Percenters. He is a DISGRACE.

  3. Alice in Wonderland, You forgot to add the default: Racist, Bigot, Homophobe, etc., etc.! You also left out many months of BLM/Antifa riots with burning, looting, stabbings, murders!
    Your Cabal mantra: Give me a generation of youth, and I’ll change the world ……Vladimir Lenin
