Biden said after the vote that the Senate would regret not spending more to improve rail security.
Gregg recommended using other funding sources, such as spending a greater portion of the more $1 billion annual subsidy for Amtrak on rail security and capital improvements. In addition, states and citiescould use their homeland security grants on rail security, Gregg said.
