That's significantly much more than just the 2 miles you suggest in Texas alone.
Finishing reports is not under construction. There are a lot of California reports that have been completed, such as the Gold Line extension, LAX people mover or Purple Line phase 3. I already said if you add commuter, intercity and streetcar lines it is more than 2 miles, but I also did not add those for California either, in which case California would likely still exceed the total for red states given the HSR under construction.
