U.S. Congresswoman Debbie Dingell (MI-12) today released the following statement regarding the Republican Continuing Resolution that fails to include aid for the Flint water crisis.

“It is unconscionable that the Republican plan to fund the government through December fails to include a dime for the people of Flint. The 9,000 children impacted by this crisis and their families have been living a nightmare for more than two years and are still unable to turn on their taps without worrying about lead exposure. 

“The people of Flint need real help, not just nice words, and I urge my colleagues to work with us to include aid for Flint families in the continuing resolution. Americans have always stepped up to help one another in times of great need, and the people of Flint deserve the same.”
