Governor Walker spent his entire campaign saying he did not agree with highspeed rail. The moment he won the election, he started insisting that Wisconsin reject the funds. Talgo’s contract with the state requires us to provide a maintenance facility for Talgo workers to service the trains. Let us not forget that the project would have been covered by the bonds set aside for this purpose. Republicans took issue with spending $53 million on the maintenance facility, stating it would provide only twenty-four permanent jobs.
