#RailWorkers Warn Safety Bill Loopholes Are Big Enough to 'Run a Freight Train Through'
"If the language is not precise, the Class 1 railroads will avoid the scope of the law without violating the law, yet again putting the safety of our members and American communities into harm's way," said one union leader. -
When are we going to believe workers? Rail workers told us a major reason to strike was safety and decaying infrastructure. We knew better, and broke the strike.
But we did put a McKinsey consultant in charge of DOT. Not even picking on dude specifically, but whose side do you think Pete is going to take in all this? Hard wired. We need to demand better, ya know?

Wasn’t there something in the news recently about how #railworkers were demanding better contracts, time off, and other stuff and then Congress and Biden told them to STFU and get back to work?
It’s really hard to remember, because it was like 350 Musktweets ago…

Sanders to Join Rail Workers in Fresh Demand for Paid Sick Leave https://www.commondreams.org/news/sanders-rail-workers-sick-leave
Will @aoc and the rest of the (D) "socialist" crew who exerted themselves to prevent the railworkers from striking last time, confront Sanders on this? You musn't upset the (D) House & Senate while they're busily playing the stock market, by fostering this nasty labor uppityness, you know.

Rail Workers Blame Fiery Train Crash in Ohio on Wall Street Profit-Seeking
https://www.commondreams.org/news/rail-workers-wall-street
Oh, those pesky complaining rail workers--are they going to threaten something extreme, like strike...again? Best not: their friends in Congress, aka the (D) Socialists [sic] of America, would just have to vote against it...again. So calm down, and keep your asbestos knickers on, OK?

#tories is the party of blaming others for their shambles. It started by blaming the #labourparty then lately it’s because of #covid or #ukraine followed by the #nurses, #nhs #railworkers #postoffice. It’s never about #BorisJohnson #brexit #rishisunak et al.

Train Engineers Just Ousted Their Union President for Supporting the Rail Deal
In the wake of the rail showdown, locomotive engineers have voted to boot their union president. It’s a stunning upset — and one that shows rank-and-file #railworkers are still simmering at the contract that was forced on them.
