Rally for Action: Hold Norfolk Southern Accountable!

Start: Wednesday, November 08, 202312:00 PM

Instead of cleaning up their mess, Norfolk Southern is using their money to sponsor international industry events. Let's remind them that THEIR victims from the East Palestine train derailment still have unmet needs.

Join Unity Council for the East Palestine Train Derailment on Wednesday, November 8th at Frankie Mae Pace Park in Pittsburgh, PA for an in-person rally and press conference hosted by the Breathe Project.

Just across the street at Doubletree Pittsburgh Downtown, world leaders from the coke, coal and steel industries will be attending the MetCoke World Summit, sponsored by Norfolk Southern. Frontline community members from across Appalachia will be traveling to stand with us against some of the country's worst polluters.

WHAT: Rally for Action: Hold Norfolk Southern Accountable!

WHERE: Frankie Mae Pace Park in Pittsburgh, PA

WHEN: Press Conference @ noon, rally in the park before and after
