President-Elect Obama likewise can be relied upon to assist in promoting and not vetoing bills which would rebuild our decaying rail infrastructure. As President, Obama may be our best hope for reopening U.S./Mexico rail border crossings such as Naco and Douglas, Arizona — which were shuttered under the negelectful watch of Senators Jon Kyl and John McCain of Arizona. Why the neglect? Illegal immigration and drug smuggling are political hot potatoes. It’s time for politicians to deal with border issues now! It’s also time for public works projects much like the Great Depression’s WPA road and bridge building successes. Freight and high-speed rail will be the impetus to successfully heal the border and get people back to work in a new “New Deal” for America. .
