CYMI: Last week, Reps. Dina Titus & Rob Bresnahan led a bipartisan letter urging the Federal Railroad Administration to preserve signal worker & train dispatcher certification programs. These programs help ensure that railroaders are highly trained and equipped to execute their jobs safely.

As the largest federation of transportation unions in the country, TTD is proud to present our "Faces of Transportation Labor" series, spotlighting the skilled, dedicated transportation workforce that keeps our country moving. First up is Terrance from @lettercarriers.bsky.social:
