Gov. Crist SunRail statement

Statement by
GOVERNOR CHARLIE CRIST
Regarding the Passage of SunRail Bill

“I applaud Chairman Mike Fasano, Senators Andy Gardiner, Chris Smith, Alex Diaz de la Portilla and the Senate Transportation and Economic Development Appropriations Committee for passing the SunRail bill. SunRail will create thousands of jobs and generate millions in additional revenue for Central Florida while protecting the environment and supporting business growth needs. A special thank you to Senator Lee Constantine for his unwavering support. I look forward to the full Senate taking up this important bill. “
