Three weeks ago the derailed train cars released significant amounts of vinyl chloride, a hazardous chemical.

WORRIED RESIDENTS PACKED a high school auditorium as activist Erin Brockovich and lawyers warned of long-term health and environmental dangers from chemicals released after a fiery train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio.

It was sponsored by East Palestine Justice, a group formed by Brockovich, lawyers and scientific and medical experts. More than 2,000 people registered to attend the meeting yesterday, with the crowd spilling into the school gymnasium. “Don’t expect somebody to give you the answers. Unfortunately, this is not a quick fix. This is going to be a long game.”
