Amen!
I recommend taking a look at Newsom's proposal for a regional program unifying San Joaquin Valley, Sacramento, and the Bay Area into a single unified rail system along with expanding ACE to Modesto a couple years ago - that would have been a game changer, but the purists struck along with other more politicially palatable options.
