NJ Congressman Pushes for Rail Passenger Refunds Amid Service Disruptions

Gottheimer's 'All Aboard Act' aims to ensure compensation for delays and improve Amtrak infrastructure.

Rep. Josh Gottheimer proposes a bill to mandate refunds for rail passengers facing delays over three hours.
The legislation, inspired by air travel rights, seeks to hold Amtrak accountable for service disruptions.
Frequent delays and cancellations have plagued NJ Transit and Amtrak, particularly in the Northeast Corridor.
Gottheimer calls for significant federal investment to address aging infrastructure and improve reliability.
The bill also demands a report on the state of Northeast Corridor infrastructure within six months.
