Now the Colorado House hears about the Southwest Chief (SB17-153)
House Transportation Committee Hearing
Wednesday, April 12, Committee Meeting starts at 1:30 pm, SB17-153 at 2:30 maybe
Colorado State Capitol
Basement
200 E. Colfax Avenue
Denver
Bus: 6, 15, 15L
The capitol is in walking distance to the free Mall Ride and Civic Center Station although they may be stopping further away than usual because Civic Center is under construction
Committee members:
Chair, Diane Mitsch Bush, Democrat representing Eagle and Routt Counties
Vice Chair Faith Winter, Democrat representing Westminster
Jeff Bridges, Democrat representing part of Arapahoe County
Daneya Esgar, Democrat, Majority Caucus Chair, representing Pueblo County
Joann Ginal, Democrat representing a part of Larimer County
Chris Hansen, Democrat representing a part of Denver
Dominique Jackson, Democrat representing a part of Arapahoe County
Barbara McLaclan, Democrat representing Archuleta, Gunnison, Hinsdale, La Plata, Ouray, and San Juan Counties
Perry Buck, Republican Minority Whip representing parts of Larimer and Weld Counties
Terri Carver, Republican representing a part of El Paso County
Polly Lawrence, Republican representing parts of Douglas and Teller Counties
Dan Nordberg, Republican representing a part of El Paso County
Jon Becker, Republican representing Cheyenne, Kit Carson, Logan, Morgan, Philips, Sedgwick, and Yuma Counties
Daneya Esgar of Pueblo is a co-sponsor of the bill to strengthen the Southwest Chief Commission, partly by giving it the authority to develop rail along the Front Range. This will make it much more likely that the train will come to Pueblo, and possible that a train will connect Colorado from Trinidad through Colorado Springs and Denver to Fort Collins.
Any resident of Colorado may testify although the time to do so may be later in the session
