Ohio senators raise alarm on cancer-causing chemical potentially spreading in East Palestine
Fox News
Ohio Sens. JD Vance and Sherrod Brown asked environmental officials for more information regarding the potential spread of a cancer-causing compound in eastern Ohio.
Citing EPA information, they noted that dioxins can interfere with hormones and can cause cancer, reproductive and developmental problems. Dioxins may also damage an exposed individual's immune system. Vance and Brown asked whether the agencies were testing for dioxins and for more information regarding the federal and state protocol for handling mass dioxin exposure. Thomas Catenacci is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.
"Following our visits to East Palestine this past week where we heard directly from members of the community, we remain concerned that it does not appear that the U.S. EPA, OEPA, or Norfolk Southern is texting for dioxins," Vance and Brown wrote.
