Companies like Norfolk Southern get away with massive crime. There should be a Congressional investigation of every aspect of what went wrong in East Palestine, Ohio, and that company should be banned from lobbying until all investigation and compensation to the citizens of East Palestine has been completed. It is ridiculous that under a Democratic administration, Norfolk Southeen is hardly even being slapped on the wrist. Unfortunately, right now, East Palestine is an example of the ineptitude of our government and its willingness to do little more than provide cover for the worst actors possible. in a “government of the people, by the people, and for the people,” the people of East Palestine should be far more protected than the executives at Norfolk Southern. #EastPalestine
In February, a train derailment exposed the town of East Palestine, Ohio, to toxic vinyl chloride. Since then, the company that made the chemicals has spent millions to stop railway legislation that could help prevent another disaster. jacobin.com/2023/08/east-pal…

Pick up the phone and talk with Secretary Pete. Find out what’s going on before you start blathering on about what should be done. @marwilliamson My mom always said it’s easy to be a critic.

We know what happened...Trump rolled back regulations and Norfolk Southern took advantage of it.

Looking forward to the day our #BananaBoat DOJ gets cleared out of these lifelong useless lawyers incapable of operating a doorknob. 🍌🐒🦘🚪 #FreeAssange #ArrestAlanShaw #ArrestWarCriminals #EndLNGProxyWars

Thank you Marianne for addressing this, with so much going on, people can forget the multi failing and abandonment of our government to its people.

I think that if corporations are to be "people" , then we need a corporate death penalty. When they act irresponsibly and people are poisoned and die, the life of that corporation should be forfeit.
