The National Transportation Safety Board put out an initial report last
week about what caused the train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio,
that has triggered a massive cleanup. POLITICO’s Tanya Snyder
breaks down the report, why this train derailment has caused partisan
finger pointing, and how the Department of Transportation might be
scrutinized moving forward. Plus, the Department of Energy is exploring
a plan to offer a government endorsement for natural gas that meets a
minimum standard for cleanliness.
