Concurrent resolution; recognizing the important transportation role of the Heartland Flyer passenger rail service, recognizing the critical need for ongoing financial partnership with the State of Texas; and urging the Texas Legislature to take budget action to allow rail service to continue.
This Oklahoma concurrent resolution (SCR 10) urges the Texas Legislature to continue funding its share of the Heartland Flyer rail service, which connects Fort Worth, Texas, and Oklahoma City. It recognizes the 25-year joint Oklahoma-Texas partnership that operates this passenger rail service, noting its importance for transportation options and economic development in the region. The resolution specifically asks Texas to allocate budget resources to maintain the service, which Oklahoma states is essential to avoid disruption and support future expansion plans. The measure does not create new law but formally requests Texas action to preserve an existing transportation link.
