Jim Cooper: “If I were the average person sitting back home watching this hearing, I think I would doubt that any of our Nation state…”

Should not suffer because railroads think they own the world.

This hearing will come to order. I would like to begin by thanking our distinguished panel of witnesses.

I regret the inconvenience.
