On April 17, 2014, Rachel Maddow closed out her show with a focus on the one-year anniversary of the West, Texas fertilizer plant explosion. Explaining the need for stronger chemical safety and security standards in Texas and across the nation, Maddow also featured our new interactive map that shows schools within one mile of risky chemical facilities in every state in the U.S.

Check out the clip below to watch Maddow demonstrate our map in action!
