    The Department of Homeland Security has introduced an Interim Final Rule (IFR) mandating a new registration process for aliens under the Immigration and Nationality Act. This rule advises aliens who have not registered to use form G-325R on myUSCIS to comply with the law. The IFR also outlines penalties for non-compliance, such as fines up to $5,000 and potential imprisonment. The rule includes provisions for public comments and considerations for implementing a $30 fee for biometric services, though there's no fee for now.

    The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) has issued an emergency order that mandates the wearing of face masks by railroad personnel to reduce the spread of COVID-19 as directed by the CDC. This order, effective March 1, 2021, applies to all freight rail operations and certain passenger rail operations under FRA’s jurisdiction, though not in areas already covered by the TSA’s mask requirements. The FRA’s decision follows inconsistent mask-wearing practices observed by inspectors and aims to protect railroad workers, inspectors, and public health. Non-compliance may result in penalties, and specific exemptions exist for certain situations and individuals.

    Simple Explanation

    The government says that people working on trains need to wear masks to help stop the spread of germs, just like they've been told by smart health experts. If they don't follow this rule, they could get in trouble, but there are some special cases where this rule might not apply.
