At the same time, they’re cutting corners, spending their profits on enriching wealthy shareholders instead of investing in safety and their workers. The bipartisan Railway Safety Act is expected to get a full vote on the Senate floor this week. The bill would: Require new safety requirements for trains that carry hazardous materials including new rules to prevent wheel bearing failures, the #1 mechanical cause of derailments Raise the fines on companies when accidents happen Require two-person work crews on every train Click “START WRITING” to send a message to your senators now and urge them to take immediate action and pass the Railway Safety Act now. https://actionnetwork.org/letters/demand-the-senate-pass-the-bipartisan-railway-safety-act
