So-Called "Railway Safety Act" Constitutes a Political Handout to Big Labor That Does Nothing to Improve Safety At All

America as we know it was built largely upon and because of our rail industry, and today it remains a pillar of our economy.

Unfortunately, a destructive proposal before Congress misleadingly named the "Railway Safety Act" (RSA), part of broader surface transportation reauthorization, threatens great harm to our railroads.

Simply put, the bill has nothing to do with improving safety, but has a lot to do with advancing the political agenda of Big Labor.  At a moment when inflation burdens American families and fragile supply chains remain vulnerable to disruption, the last thing our economy or rail sector need is another costly federal mandate imposed upon one of the nation’s most important transportation sectors.

On the Decision by U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit to Strike Down the Biden Administration's Title II 'Net Neutrality' Regulations:
 
 

"Today's decision is a good win for the country. Over the past four years, the Biden Administration has worked to expand the governmen't control over every feature of the Internet ecosystem. You can see it in the Biden Administration's efforts to pressure social media companies into censoring the free speech rights of everyday Americans. You can see it in the Biden Administration's demand that the FCC adopt 'digital equity' rules for the Internet -- sweeping regulations that give the Commission nearly limitless powers over the Internet. And you can see it in the Biden Administration's decision to impose so-called 'net neutrality' rules by applying Title II or utility-style regulations to the Internet.

"President Biden's decision to impose these Title II regulations represented a break from the bipartisan consensus established by a Republican Congress and a Democrat President and enshrined in law nearly thirty years ago -- a consensus that provided a stable regulatory framework that allowed the Internet in America to flourish. And President Biden's entire plan rested on the Chicken Little tactic of persuading Americans that the Internet would break in the absence of these so-called 'net neutrality' regulations. he American people have now seen through that ruse. ...

"I am pleased that the appellate court invalidated President Biden's Internet power grab by striking down these unlawful Title II regulations. But the work to unwind the Biden Administration's regulatory overreach will continue. I welcome the chance to advance a policy agenda that will deliver great results for the American people."

It holds that the Jews, a small group of people from a distant land, who live differently than the rest of us, secretly control everything in our society through their money or their intelligence:…[more]
