Norfolk Southern had a record $4.45 billion in 2021 and spent $4.23B on stock buybacks in 2022. They're worth $53B. They've proven those profits are more important than the safety of their railroaders and the communities they serve. It's time to nationalize the railroads!

"Protestors, holding signs bedecked with messages like “striking is a human right” and “please support sick days for workers” chanted “paid leave now” outside the museum, where Biden was meeting with Prince William as part of William’s three-day visit to Boston."

***UPDATED TIME***
Join railroad workers, DSA, union members, and other supporters at 2:15pm on Friday, December 2nd, at the JFK Library to support railroad workers' right to strike!

For years, railroad companies have cut costs to drive up profits for shareholders, leaving workers to bear the consequences.
