Some Tulsa city officials want $9-million in federal funding to study a light rail system for Tulsa.

Some believe a rail system could help the city's transportation and air quality.

US Congressman Ernest Istook says he prefers to use his clout for Oklahoma's more pressing highway needs.

A light rail system in Tulsa would cost hundreds of millions of dollars.
