A gubernatorial candidate in Wisconsin has made a campaign pledge to turn down federal money intended to build a high speed rail route connecting Milwaukee and Wisconsin. But some say he won't be able to do it.
Candidate Scott Walker wants to turn down $810 million in federal stimulus money approved for the rail link.
"Instead of high-speed rail service, Walker says he'll use the money to improve the state's road and bridges, a move that, at a minimum, would require an act of Congress.
State officials express doubt that what Walker is proposing is even possible, while federal transportation officials say they will not 'speculate about hypothetical scenarios.'"
