The Quad Cities Chamber of Commerce is seeking public support to help achieve progress in long-delayed planned passenger rail service to and from Chicago. Illinois State Senator Mike Halpin and Representative Gregg Johnson filed resolutions in the Illinois Senate and House last week, urging Gov. JB Pritzker and the Illinois Department of Transportation to make a formal request to the National Surface Transportation Board to compel Iowa Interstate Railroad to enter into an agreement on the QC passenger rail project.
