Bean on right side of railroad debate
Each time I drive over a railroad crossing, I can't help but consider how much harder it will be to move around our community if the EJ&E Railroad purchase is completed. More importantly, I Imagine how much more dangerous life will be for school buses and new drivers. Why do special interests ignore the effect they have on communities? Thanks to Rep. Melissa Bean for leading the fight against Canadian National. She has been on top of this issue since it first arose in the fall and sees that this foreign company doesn't care about our community. I'm glad someone is listening to the concerns of everyday citizens instead of deep-pocketed lobbyists.
