12. BP Amoco Oil Refinery Workers
Edited on Fri Mar-25-05 11:42 AM by jbarab
I'm not sure if the names of all of those killed in Texas City have been released yet, but I do know that no one knows the names of the more of more than a handful of the more than 5,000 workers killed every day on the job. I try to collect as many as I can on my bi-weekly Weekly Toll, but I can only find a small percentage. They're basically lost soul, unnoticed and forgotten by everyone except immediate family and friends. They should be remembered and their tragedies used in the fight for safer workplaces in this country.
