Representative Kevin Hern (OK-01) released the following statement after voting against two nonbinding resolutions regarding ongoing negotiations with railway workers’ unions.  Rep. Hern voted “NO” on H.J. Res. 100 & H. Con. Res. 119.

 “Over many decades in business, I successfully navigated numerous contract negotiations without the federal government’s interference,” said Rep. Hern. “Just last month, Biden was bragging about his mediation over a new deal; now, the White House is begging Congress to fix it. It’s not Congress’ job to clean up the Biden Administration’s messes. A rail strike would impact every single American – no one wants it to come to that. However, these nonbinding resolutions will not get any party closer to an agreement.”
