To: Tell It Right
Our DOT secretary won’t quit even when our trains spew out toxic chemicals.

DOT Secretary would give "Build Racial Equity" award to any transportation official ordering train cars too wide for train tunnels and promote ze/zer/zim.

Yes it is. Contractors often get called in to solve the same kinds of problems over and over again. Trust me, it happens.
