Corporate Partnership
We support communities eager for fast, frequent, and affordable trains
As a corporate partner, you will help harness the energy of local leaders to ensure that projects get completed and momentum continues to grow.
Major new infrastructure funding has started flowing to exciting projects nationwide. This provides an unprecedented opportunity to create a federal high-speed and intercity passenger-rail program that can be sustained, and even grow, through changes in administrations or legislative control.
Metra CEO/Executive Director Jim Derwinski and Congressman Jesús “Chuy” García spoke at the Alliance’s Spring 2024 Luncheon in Chicago.
Success will require that states put forward high-impact projects, then move quickly to complete them. The High Speed Rail Alliance works to support them through this process. Our strategy focuses on equipping municipal officials, civic leaders, and engaged citizens with the tools and resources they need to advocate on their own behalf. We then connect and unify champions into coalitions capable of growing state and federal programs.
The Alliance has built a strong foundation of productive relationships through decades of successful grassroots advocacy. It is urgent that we step up the scope and intensity of our work during this unique moment.

About the High Speed Rail Alliance
We are a 501(c)3 non-profit supported by individuals, municipalities, companies, and foundations. We are governed by an all-volunteer board.
Our members know that high-speed trains, integrated with expanding transit networks, will revitalize cities, towns, and regions by making visits to family, friends, and business partners easier, more productive, and more affordable. And they will dramatically reduce carbon emissions in the process.
Our members and volunteers are supported by a staff of three full-time employees. Communications, media outreach and organizing functions are conducted by a mix of staff, volunteers, and outside contractors as circumstances and funding warrant.
It’s a Beautiful Country
Let’s see it. Let’s clean it. Let’s build it. Let’s make high speed rail a reality.
