‘CoCo’ would take taxpayers for a ride | John Caldara

Colorado's proposal to spend $4.73 billion on a new passenger rail system, dubbed 'CoCo,' has raised eyebrows due to the state's history of ambitious rail projects that have failed to deliver. Critics argue that this new initiative is another risky venture that could leave taxpayers on the hook for substantial losses, much like previous projects that have gone awry. This move underscores the ongoing debate about the viability and fiscal responsibility of large-scale infrastructure investments in the state.
