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.

A former professional football player is being threatened with lawsuits from parents of teenagers who allegedly trashed his home.

According to news reports, rather than apologize to Holloway for their children's behavior, some parents have contacted lawyers to see what, if any, legal remedy may be available. 

“Parents have threatened me,” Holloway said. “Your kids are in my house breaking and stealing my stuff and you are mad at me because I posted pictures that they took and posted themselves of them partying and tearing things up?”
