Earlier this month a Norfolk Southern freight train derailed, caught fire, and spilled toxic chemicals along the Ohio-Pennsylvania border. Many people have become sick, several pets have died, and scientists believe the effects of this spill could last for years. Poor regulation and malpractice are the likely causes of this spill and Norfolk Southern needs to be held accountable for this. Please sign this petition to demand that Norfolk Southern fund the healthcare costs and monitor people in the affected area!
