14 Democrat Attorney Generals Pressure Feds to Block LNG-by-Rail

In June 2020 the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA), in coordination with the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), published final rules to allow LNG (liquefied natural gas) to be safely transported by special rail cars (see PHMSA and Fed Railroad Admin Publish Final LNG by Rail Regs). Anti-fossil fuel zealots hate fossil fuels, including natural gas, so much, they launched two lawsuits to prevent the new LNG-by-rail rules from taking effect. One lawsuit was filed by 14 Democrat state attorneys general, including PA AG Josh Shapiro (see 14 AGs Join Radical Green Groups Suing to Block LNG by Rail). Those same 14 AGs are now pushing the PHMSA to indefinitely suspend the LNG-by-rail regulation.
