Sen. Cruz Holds Norfolk Southern to Its Promise to East Palestine Homeowners

Press Release

"Norfolk Southern committed to me and the people of Ohio and Pennsylvania that they would compensate homeowners who sold their property at less than fair market value because of the derailment. We have been working hold the railroad to that commitment. My office has been watching closely and has held frequent calls with Norfolk Southern and the Ohio Attorney General's Office to make sure that this fund would be made available to the people of East Palestine--as promised. As of today, Norfolk Southern's interim fund is now set up for home sellers whose property values declined due to no fault of their own. This fund is one of the most consequential actions taken to date for helping Ohioans and Pennsylvanians affected by the accident. I intend to keep the pressure on Norfolk Southern to make things right for the community."
