EPA’s Regan: ‘This Administration Has Stood Shoulder-to-Shoulder with East Palestine Every Single Day Since Last February’
EXCERPT:
REGAN: “It’s been a year since a Norfolk Southern freight train carrying hazardous chemicals derailed, releasing toxins into the environment and upending countless lives. For many, it’s been a year of fear, uncertainty and disarray. While we recognize times have been challenging, thanks to President Biden’s strong leadership, this administration has stood shoulder-to-shoulder with East Palestine every single day since last February. Immediately after the disaster, the president vowed to hold Norfolk Southern accountable and he committed to mobilize in a whole-of-government approach, using every tool available to assist the people of this community during the time of need. I’m grateful to work for a president who cares deeply about a community and stays true to his word.”
