Bring Passenger Rail Service to Iowa!
Right now, ELPC’s Iowa Global Warming Campaign is working to build on the momentum of the grassroots support for connecting Iowa to the Midwest Regional Rail Network; ensuring our legislators know how strong the demand is for this convenient, environmentally friendly and economically important service. We need your help – there are many ways to get involved, please take the time to do one or more of the following things to make sure Governor Culver and the Iowa Legislature make the minimum $3 million initial investment needed to bring passenger trains to Iowa from Chicago.
Write a Letter to the Editor
Letters to the Editor are widely read by legislators, and are a great way to help get the word out about the opportunity to bring passenger rail service to Iowa. You can write your letter here.
Write a Letter to Governor Culver and your Representatives
If you haven’t already, it’s crucial that you write a letter to your elected representatives to tell them to invest in rail service connecting Iowa to Chicago and other Midwest cities. Our system makes it easy to do, click here.
