Congressman Dan Kildee (MI-05) issued the following statement today after Governor Rick Snyder’s press conference in Flint regarding the ongoing water crisis:
Washington, D.C. – January 12, 2015 – (RealEstateRama) — “Flint residents deserve action, not more talk from Governor Snyder. This is not a public relations problem – this is a public health crisis.
“The indifference shown by this administration throughout this water crisis is beyond frustrating. An entire city has been poisoned by a decision made by a state-appointed emergency financial manager and for months the state first denied, then delayed action to help the people of Flint.
“I have no confidence that Gov. Snyder is responding to this ongoing emergency in a way equal to the gravity of the situation, which is why I today reiterated my request for the federal government to provide any assistance to help in this ongoing crisis.”
