National Railroad Passenger Corp Amtrak

City-funded organization

The National Railroad Passenger Corporation, known as Amtrak, is the national intercity passenger railroad that Congress created through the Rail Passenger Service Act of 1970, incorporated in 1971, and it is now a partner in the Gateway Program's Hudson Tunnel Project to add rail capacity between New Jersey and New York Penn Station. It holds one active New York City contract, a "Force Account Master Agreement with AMTRAK" with the Department of Transportation worth $23,666,415 as of August 2026, part of $66,050,788 awarded across 12 contracts since 2004 (of which $43,909,954 has been paid to date). Those contracts carry "Negotiated (real-property/other)" or "Government-to-government" award tags, so 100% of contract value awarded without a fresh competitive bid ($66,050,788 across 12 contracts).

Congressional testimony

Congressional committee meetings where congress.gov lists a witness whose stated affiliation is exactly this organization's name, for the 118th and 119th Congresses, as of 2026-09-01. Name variations are not matched, so an appearance filed under a different spelling of this organization is missing
