High speed rail project will be a symbol of inclusivity and economic opportunity

FILE - A Brightline train is shown at a station in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., on Jan. 11, 2018. Dallas pastor Bryan Carter writes that a proposed high-speed rail project in Texas could be a symbol of inclusivity and economic opportunity. The push for high-speed rail in Texas has embarked on a remarkable journey symbolic of progress and enhanced connectivity within our city.

Critics, detached from our communities, have cast doubt and misinformation on the project without merit. Their goals starkly oppose our collective path forward. But like David, undaunted by Goliath’s size, we draw strength from our shared faith to unite against such opposition. As leaders, advocates and citizens, it is our duty to ensure this initiative advances and thrives, showcasing how infrastructure can unify and empower communities nationwide.

In the Bible, Nehemiah inspires his community to rebuild Jerusalem’s walls, embodying the power of collective action with the rallying cry, “Let us rise up and build.” This story parallels Dallas’ high-speed rail project, which is not just about connecting places but about uniting people and healing past divisions.High-speed rail signifies a transformative chapter for Dallas, driven by faith in action.
