Government Wants Oversight For Subways
Lawmakers are set to vote on measures to give the federal government oversight for subways. There are no federal safety standards governing subways and light-rail systems right now. The Washington Post reports that a 45-year-old law lets rail agencies set their own rules. There are few — if any — state regulations. The legislation may pass this time, the Post says. The measures are connected to reauthorization bills for federal highways and transit spending.

The first step to the TSA molesting everyone that rides the subway.
Obammy is trying to stop people from driving their own cars with rediculous EPA regs and obscene gas prices. Soon everyone will be forced to ride public transportation on their way to the government mandated job and be subjected to unlawfull searches.
When does the rebellion start?
You mean they want oversight on Subways but their leaving Quiznos alone?
