John, you’ve probably heard the terrible news from Ohio:
But this terrible accident is made worse because it was entirely avoidable. Rail workers tried to warn us that this derailment could take place. Take a look at this headline:
The Secretary of Transportation, Pete Buttigieg, has so far continued Trump-era deregulation by not requiring companies to upgrade their brake systems on trains. We need your help to push Pete Buttigieg, to take action, regulate the rail industry, and ensure these rail companies upgrade their brake systems.
Thank you for being a part of our movement. Whether you can contribute a grassroot contribution or take action when we need it today to support rail workers, we’re so grateful to have you with us in the fight for progress.
More soon,
Team JD
