The Ohio freight rail disaster underscores the importance of reining in the rail industry. Years of lax oversight and a profits-before-people approach must be addressed.
Friend,
The Ohio freight rail disaster brought to the surface just how dangerous our rail industry has become. But it shouldn’t come as a surprise.
Years of lax oversight, anti-labor practices, and stock buybacks have turned the rail industry – a pivotal part of the American economy – into a threat to our environment, our prosperity, and our safety.
Sign if you agree: Demand a federal investigation into the rail industry’s dangerous practice of putting profits ahead of workers, the environment, and our economy.
The rail industry is not only neglecting our safety, they’re also slashing jobs, reducing service, raising rates, and “investing” their massive profits into dividends and stock buybacks in order to boost its own value.
Take action: Demand a federal investigation into the rail industry now!
Onward,
Ro
