Congressman Griffin Pledged to Hold Exxon Accountable. "When a Mayflower neighborhood was overrun by oil leaking from an underground pipeline, community leaders, government officials and Exxon Mobil employees responded quickly Thanks to everyone's teamwork, damage from the spill has so far been contained [...] Exxon will be held accountable. A thorough investigation will determine why this leak happened, and while Exxon employees apologized for this accident, clearly that can't turn back the clock. They assure me they will be there until their job is done, and I will hold them to it. My office is reaching out to every family to ensure their immediate needs are met."
