6:37Now PlayingNewsNation returned to East Palestine, Ohio, where residents say they are still suffering three years after the hazardous train derailment that upended the community. Independent testing now suggests contamination in the area may be getting worse, even as members of Congress renewed bipartisan calls for legislation to strengthen safety standards for trains carrying hazardous materials.
