Congressman Westmoreland

> Good Morning Neighbor:

> I am just returning from a short trip and catching up on my
> emails. Please see the email below - I think it is so important
> that we make our voice heard whenever possible. Congressman
> Westmoreland needs to be reminded that the EPA failed our community
> and that there must be changes in the way it operates. One clear
> example is that when the EPA was notified in late June of this
> event they were able to have the DOT hold the tankers that were
> returning to Axis, Alabama and at that moment the contents could
> have been tested. They would have immediately known that our
> community was being exposed to hazardous chemicals and emergency
> steps could have been taken to shutdown the plant - not allowing
> our poisoning another day. But, as we all know this did not happen
> - instead we were exposed for weeks and weeks to come and now many
> in our community are suffering the physical consequences.
>
> I realize this is short notice but your presence always makes a
> difference!!!
