While they have plans to do so in the far future, they still don't have the funds to do so. And that $3 Billion is far less than the $90 Billion they have left to find funding for to do so.
Few private enterprises start construction projects without at least a plan to fully fund it. Not CHSR.

ACTUALLY, It's the opposite. Palmdale is likely to HSR soon but not on the California government line... The High Desert Corridor connector to Victorville is likely to be built soon giving Palmdale a second base of service to and from Vegas... That money would probably pay for the whole 50-mile line and that would be a great use of $ if you ask me...
