HR 3040 mandates two person freight train crews.

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.

Why is this important?

My husband is a conductor for BNSF Railroad, which is about to try to lower crews to 1 man. To keep the trains safe we need to keep 2-man crews. Please sign this petition to keep my husband and all railroaders safe! Thank you.
