Gen Z’s transit meme dream | Tell Me More

President Joe Biden is known for his love of Amtrak — and now, many young Americans are hoping that might translate to a push for public transit, maybe even high-speed rail, from the federal government. A meme has taken off among Gen Z and millennials of an imagined high-speed rail system that would connect many of the biggest cities in the country. Vox policy and politics intern Gabby Birenbaum discusses how a meme about trains took off among young people, and how their aspirations go beyond the internet. They want a better, more equitable transit system, and they hope Biden can deliver. Read Gabby's story here. Tell Me More is a Vox Quick Hits exclusive series hosted by politics and business reporter Emily Stewart and produced by Sofi LaLonde. New episodes on Mondays and Tuesdays.
