Sen. Mike Braun (R-Ind.) and Rep. Jim Baird (R-Ind.) have raised concerns with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) over its plan to move hazardous waste materials from the derailed train site in East Palestine, Ohio, to Indiana.

The lawmakers, in a letter (pdf) to EPA Administrator Michael Regan, demanded to know why the materials are coming to their state and listed a string of questions for health officials to answer.
