We commend @STBdotgov for its smart, thorough decision to reject the proposed UP–NS #freightrail merger application. There is too much at stake for shippers, consumers, & the U.S. supply chain to get it wrong. https://t.co/ltTHMejyBD

Thank you for advancing a smart proposal to unlock #FreightRail competition. Eliminating regulatory barriers that promote monopoly power will help boost U.S. manufacturing & economic growth.
Today the STB issued a unanimous and significant deregulatory and pro-competitive action: repeal of 49 CFR part 1144, governing competitive access prescriptions. This would eliminate regulatory barriers that have limited options for American businesses, bring the agency’s
