EAST PALESTINE, Ohio — Vice President JD Vance will return to East Palestine on Monday to mark the second anniversary of the disastrous train derailment.

Vance will be joined by Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin and the congressional delegation representing the district. This will include the two new U.S. senators from Ohio, Bernie Moreno and Jon Husted, who is the former lieutenant governor appointed by Gov. Mike DeWine (R-OH) to replace Vance, who resigned from the Senate in early January to take office as the 50th vice president of the United States.
