Christianson: It’s a MAGA, MAGA world
Letter to the editor
Another train derailment in Minnesota.
Do you think that maybe the deregulation of railroad safety under the twice-impeached, disgraced ex-president could be a factor? Lack of bank regulations a factor in failures? Lack of gun regulations a factor in shootings?
Let’s get this straight: The MAGA Republicans would rather ban books, regulate women’s health care, praise and visit insurrectionists and cop-beaters in jail, and make laws about LBGTQ people than actually make a difference in our safety, health, and education.
Back to our railroad through Glenwood Springs along the Colorado River: Does John Martin actually believe that by handing out a binder on “Hazardous Materials Marking, Placing and Placarding” make transportation of more hazardous materials safer?
Without regulations and a halt to spending billions of dollars on a railway for oil and gas, we are going to continue to be at the mercy of greedheads.
