Railroad union: Workers getting sick at site of Norfolk Southern’s catastrophic hazmat spill in East Palestine JOSEPH MACKINNON
MARCH 02, 2023 – The head of a major railroad union confronted Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg on Wednesday with allegations that some Norfolk Southern railroad workers have taken ill at the site of the railway’s catastrophic toxic spill in East Palestine, Ohio.
Jonathon Long, the general chairman of the American Rail System Federation, accused Norfolk Southern of putting workers’ health at risk at least in part due to its “cost-cutting business model.”
He suggested further that the company “and other railroads alike must be held accountable in their operations, through rule-making and regulatory reform that establishes minimum safety standards in their operations.”
