Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg Visits East Palestine, OH for First Time Since Train Derailment |
CBS: Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg visited East Palestine, Ohio, for the first time on Thursday, as the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) released the initial results of its investigation into the derailment of a Norfolk Southern train carrying hazardous substances. The 38-car train that crashed Feb. 3 has sparked serious health and environmental concerns for the area’s residents, who have expressed frustration over the slowness of the federal government’s response to the crisis (CBS). Daily Wire: Buttigieg, who has presided over several high-profile infrastructure problems during his tenure, said earlier in the week that he would visit East Palestine “when the time is right” (Daily Wire). Townhall: REPORTER: “Should you have come a little sooner?” PETE BUTTIGIEG: “I’m trying to strike the right balance” (Townhall). |
