Protect Your Local Waterways, Lands, And Families

[JustinK]

Hello All,

There has been a recent proposal to just have one person, the engineer, on each train. Big business is trying to cut out the conductor. This proposal puts our families, waterways, lands, and everyone we know at risk. I am posting this because I think it's a big deal and I personally don't want to take a chance of a 10,000 ton crude oil train derailing and blowing the whole area to smitherines.

Also, The tragic accident in Lac-Megantic, Quebec, Canada could have been avoided if two people were working on this train. Two crew members are IMPERATIVE for safe train operation; 47 lives were lost because of corporate greed.

That's why I signed a petition to The United States House of Representatives, which says:

"HR 3040 mandates two person freight train crews."

The link to the petition is posted below:

As of now, the petition has received 20000+ signatures! To really make a difference, we need a lot more people to join in. Please share this petition with all of your family and friends.
