Klobuchar Statement on Train Derailment Outside Lancaster

Statement

Date: June 1, 2023
Location: Washington, D.C.

"Thank you to the local and state emergency management personnel who responded to the train derailment outside Lancaster. While I'm relieved to hear that there were no injuries and there's no danger to residents at this time, families shouldn't have to worry that a possible derailment could put them and their community in harm's way. It's past time to put in place stronger rail safety standards and more accountability for violations. That's why I am a cosponsor of the bipartisan Railway Safety Act and I'm working with my colleagues to make sure it becomes law."
