If it's a choice between my getting more highway funding in the short term and getting money for the high-speed train, I'm going to have more chance getting highway funding, because if I get $2 billion in highway funding, well, that's up against $3.5 billion that the rail franchise wants.
Si on a le choix entre le financement des autoroutes et le financement du train à grande vitesse, j'ai de meilleures chances d'obtenir le financement des autoroutes car je pourrais obtenir un montant de 2 milliards de dollars pour les autoroutes, alors que la franchise ferroviaire réclame 3,5 milliards.
