Great crew in town for the @ACD_chem Washington Fly-In this year. Largest ever! Over 160 meetings with House and Senate members and their staff. Proud of our gang for doing a masterful job coordinating and to all of our members, great job advocating!!!
The STB accepted the UP-NS merger application, but serious concerns remain.
ACD’s @EricR_ACD: “An application can meet procedural requirements while still threatening competition, service reliability, and the interests of shippers and consumers. STB’s request for additional information underscores the continued lack of transparency and calls into question the completeness and credibility of the entire proposal.” Learn more: https://t.co/UgvuOEhIkR

We gotta do better than this nonsense. One state grabs 5 seats and another retaliates. It’s a joke. We are going down a very slippery slope with this gerrymandering process.
Decision Desk HQ projects the VA Congressional Redistricting Referendum will Pass.
While No currently has the lead, based on the location and size of the remaining vote, Yes will take the lead as soon as the remaining counties report.

ACD team members recently spent the day volunteering at the Humane Society of Fairfax County’s Farm, helping with chores and supporting the incredible work they do to care for animals in need. From lending a hand around the farm to spending time with the animals, it was a rewarding (and a little messy!) day for all involved.
We’re proud to continue this tradition and support an organization dedicated to rescuing and caring for abused, neglected, and unwanted animals.
Take a look at a few moments from this year and past visits—we’re already looking forward to coming back!

Yes with $150 round trip train fare from Manhattan during game days. The utter definition of price gauging. Special thanks to @GovSherrillNJ for
embracing this utter nonsense. Politicians in the NY/NJ area need to do better. You wanted these games. Plan accordingly!

Great to see @SenMullin approved by the U.S. Senate as the next @DHSgov Secretary. Big task ahead but if anyone can handle that job it is Senator Mullin.
