STB is facing the biggest #FreightRail issues in decades from enhancing competition to the largest rail merger in U.S. history. ACC urges the Senate to confirm Karen Hedlund for a second term to help provide experienced leadership at this critical time. https://t.co/phs0r5mEKz

More GOP leaders warn the UP–NS rail merger could drive up costs for American manufacturers  & consumers. Thank you AGs @BrennaBird, @MTAGKnudsen, @KrisKobach1787,  @DrewWrigley and @RepublicanAGs for shining a light on this risky deal.

[Kris W. Kobach @KrisKobach1787]

A proposed $85B merger threatens to concentrate market power in an already highly consolidated industry in the hands of two companies. The consequences will ripple across the economy, raising costs, and squeezing industries that depend on rail.

10 years ago, Congress rebuilt America’s chemical safety law from the ground up. Today, @EPA’s new chemicals queue sits at 446 cases, and 92% of reviews stalled. Administrative progress is real, but only Congress can make TSCA reform durable. #FixTSCA #ChemistryCreates

The latest Global CPRI data shows a mixed picture for U.S. & global chemical production in April. In the U.S., gains in specialty chemicals, basic chemicals, & synthetic materials helped offset declines in agricultural chemicals and consumer products. https://t.co/e5eI2iNfX0

The UP-NS merger is a bad deal that would concentrate nearly half of U.S. freight rail traffic under one operator, choking off competition across the USA. ACC President & CEO @JahnChris explains what’s at stake for supply chains, manufacturing, & growth. https://t.co/PcIVBSljxj

A challenging year doesn't change the fact that American Chemistry is fundamental to manufacturing, innovation, and U.S. competitiveness. ACC Chief Economist Martha Moore explains why the outlook is brighter than many think. Watch ⤵️ https://t.co/IWKGCB69eJ

[American Chemistry @AmChemistry]

A competitive freight rail network isn't optional, it's essential. The proposed UP-NS merger would put nearly half of U.S. freight rail traffic under one company, creating a single point of failure for manufacturers and more. @JahnChris explains why. https://t.co/I2MnXdnDgc

Conversations matter. Thanks to Olin Corp for hosting an employee town hall on Responsible Care - engaging teams on advocacy & the importance of telling our story. Also great to join Olin at the West Iberville CAP to share and listen. #ResponsibleCare

Everyone knows when competition disappears, costs go up. Florida Attorney General @JamesUthmeierFL explains how the proposed UP-NS rail merger would drive up prices, increase supply chain risks, and leave American businesses and families footing the bill. https://t.co/S1f85Lfxmg

ACC brought Responsible Care® to life at #TCCLCA with two powerful sessions:

➡️ Crisis leadership with @chemtrec CEO Andrew LaVanway

📷 Managing commercial partner risk across the value chain Strong systems. Aligned teams. Real-time decision-making. #EHS #ACC

TSCA bottlenecks delay innovative chemistries and jeopardizes U.S. jobs. Congress can act now to restore timely reviews and modernize the system. See how: https://t.co/jkWMcPzI4m

In this op-ed for @Newsmax, retired Brig. Gen John Teichert understands that America’s strength is dependent on strong infrastructure. The UP-NS rail merger creates less competition & could impact the industries & workers that supply our national defense. https://t.co/DjaSY9jc4o

[American Chemistry @AmChemistry]

The UP-NS rail merger is raising concerns from our leadership and for good reason. Monopolies hurt competition and hinder the free market. Read this @DailySignal article to learn why this merger should be stopped in its tracks. https://t.co/NIyY6S2viS

Thank you to @RepGrothman and his staff for meeting with members of ACC's Formaldehyde Panel last week on Capitol Hill. We appreciated the discussion on formaldehyde and the importance of sound science and transparency in TSCA decision-making.

[American Chemistry @AmChemistry]

Sharing insights to drive continuous improvement. That’s the power of #ResponsibleCare. June’s PSRN meetings brought pros together to discuss combustible dust hazards, alarm mgmt & more to help strengthen process safety performance. Thank you to HASC & @StepanCompany for hosting!
