GOMEZ: "I believe it is up to the federal government as well as the state government to take steps to make sure that these people don’t get sicker. That they are protected and at the same time that communities are cleaned up. But in the long-term, we have to agree that the lanyard policies across the country. The poor and the working class are not the ones who should bear the brunt of chemical pollution and rail accidents and things that we have seen. Because it is something that we have seen across the country and it is something that must come to an end."
