Flint water disaster is still alive and dangerous

 
A FEDERAL EMERGENCY for Flint, Michigan was declared on January 16, 2016. That declaration expires on August 14, 2016. The federal emergency did NOT solve the problem that Flint residents face everyday. After President Obama’s viit to Flint, MI in May, the nation was led to believe that the water was safe to drink and donations declined.
Many are still sick and suffering with various issues due to the Flint toxic water.
Experts agree that our water quality still fails the lead and copper rule test!! Furthermore, when the Environmental Protection Agency recently declared Flint water safe with the use of sink filtrs, the County Medical Society warned that children under 6, pregnant women and those with a compromised immune system should continue using bottled water!!
THEREFORE we DEMAND:
(1) Declare FLINT a FEDERAL DISASTER AREA
which would allow, for example, the Army Corp of Engineers to replace the infrastructure.
(2) Make full Medicare available for every FLINT resident immediately.
(3) Abolish Michigan Emergency Law (P.A.436) to protect DEMOCRACY in Michigan.
Congress failed to take up the “Families of Flint Act” bfore recessing early on a seven week summer break. Meanwhile, Flint families do not have the privilege of recessing and taking a break from toxic water!!!
