I am a life-long conservative, born and raised in rural Kansas. I am a recently retired Masters prepared Family Nurse Practitioner with 35 years experience in the nursing/medical field. For the last 46 years I have lived in rural Louisiana.
FLASH INTEL: As of two days ago, Union Pacific railroad is now beginning to EMBARGO rail shippers by forcing their rail transport cars off their railroad. UP is claiming they have TOO MUCH rail demand and can't handle the load. From the railroad's press office: "If we do not see reductions to the operating inventory through their voluntary efforts, then we will begin metering traffic after April 18th."
That was two days ago. The forced de-platforming of rail cars has begun. Grain, coal, etc.
@HealthRanger Several of us here in Louisian have called and emailed our state and national congressional reps and senators asking them to look into this issue. We are also in the process of trying to get local print and television media to investigate further
