California drops lawsuit seeking to reinstate federal funding for the state's bullet train
California this week dismissed a lawsuit officials filed against the Trump administration over the federal government's withdrawing of $4 billion for the state's long-delayed high-speed rail project. The U.S. Transportation Department in July slashed funds for the bullet train aimed at connecting San Francisco to Los Angeles. The Trump administration has said the California High-Speed Rail Authority had “ no viable plan ” to complete a large segment of project in the state's farm-rich Central Valley.
