It’s also the same thing that’s happening with gun violence: Republicans deliberately silenced the science of gun violence prevention, then offer “thoughts and prayers” when our fellow Americans are slaughtered in schools, theaters, grocery stores, & their own homes.
@RVAwonk If Joe truly cared about this issue he could fix it with an executive order. Boom done.Did he? No? It's on him.He could have changed it while negotiating with RR unions. Explicitly he was asked, & made the decision not to. The railways are interstate, federal. It's all on Joe
@RVAwonk Wasn't it @BarackObama that signed the bill into law?
