Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine is calling on Congress to take action on rail safety in the aftermath of the East Palestine freight train derailment.

In a press conference Friday, DeWine said it's up to Congress to pass stricter regulations for rail companies.

"To look at the question of what products are being carried on the rails, what the responsibility is of the railroad, what the responsibility is of the railroad to notify the state when that product is coming through," DeWine said.

Railroads should have to notify communities of what's being transported through them, DeWine said.

"In this particular case, there was no notification, and apparently there was no legal requirement for a notification," DeWine said.

Sen. Sherrod Brown said he will work in Congress to make changes that strengthen freight rail safety.
