California high-speed rail consultants' questionable expenses
A new audit revealed that California's high-speed rail project paid over $680,000 in questionable travel expenses to consultants, including premium flights, rideshares to recreational venues, and trips to international locations, often without proper approval or necessity. The inspector general warned that the project faces funding shortages by the end of next year, with costs now estimated at up to $231 billion and completion delayed until around 2039. Despite financial issues, the rail authority's expenses on travel remained unrestrained, leading critics to call for halting the project and reallocating funds.
