U.S. Representative Chris Deluzio is pushing for more protections against train derailments and spills. The Western Pennsylvania congressman introduced a new measure yesterday that adds to his previous Railway Safety Act proposal. The legislation would establish a close call reporting system, set up first responder notification guidelines, and devote more money to safety measures at rail crossings. Congress held railway safety hearings yesterday as officials look to address the causes of the toxic derailment in East Palestine.
