Washington, DC – Greg Regan, president of the Transportation Trades Department, AFL-CIO (TTD), issues this statement about the unfolding events at the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) light rail yard in San Jose:
“As TTD continues to monitor the developing news about a mass shooting at the Guadalupe VTA maintenance yard in San Jose, California this morning, we wish to share our heartbreak for our brothers and sisters who lost their lives and who were injured in this senseless act of violence. We mourn with their families and friends for their loss and stand in solidarity with all workers, who should never have to walk onto the job fearing for their lives or their safety.”
