When clean air takes a backseat to locomotive profits, guess who ends up paying for the pollution? Hint: it’s all of us.

Maybe there's a middle track here, but this bill's sudden stop on state power leaves a lot of questions at the station.

Why let state rules derail business? This bill keeps the rails open for growth, not green tape.

Letting states dodge emission rules on locomotives? That’s like giving smokestacks a hall pass during a fire drill.

This bill is a train wreck for the environment — skipping state standards is just plain toxic behavior.

More federal red tape? No thanks — let states cut the smoke but not the cords of commerce.
