Our legislators do not understand the risks in building the final segment of rail.  HART is hiding these risks.  The FTA and the city have a 50 page list of these risks - and it is kept secret.  Our legislators have spent no time discussing the need to raise our property taxes to pay for rail every year. Our legislators do not understand how much each person and family pays every year for the rail GET - so it is unfair to extend a tax they do not understand. Our legislators do not understand the reality that rail will have low ridership.  No legislator has ever been to a hearing regarding rail ridership because there has never been one.
