"It's still very much a crisis, a lot of people think that [it's been solved] bc the stories have gone away, the attention has gone away, mainstream media has gone away...you said it right, this is WATERgate right here in Flint," -ex Flint Mayor Karen Weaver on #FlintWaterCrisis
9 years into #FlintWaterCrisis, Weaver says there's STILL issues with the water: "You haven't completed the pipe replacement, what do you think is going to happen when you're leaving these old lead and galvanized pipes in the ground" ...or address people's INTERIOR HOME PLUMBING?

🧵"I lost my 17-year-old daughter to an asthma attack; my 32-year-old son is on life support," - Kalamazoo MI resident Deann. Her poor Black neighborhood is being POISONED by multi-billion dollar corporation Graphic Packaging - who's releasing 30+ toxic & foul-smelling gases… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
The smell from the gases is so bad kids at the local school don't go out for recess or play in neighborhood. Parents can't open the windows at home. Residents have asthma, COPD, burning eyes, stomach aches, headaches, and other symptoms. At night, the smell gets MUCH WORSE...
In 2021, MI @GovWhitmer's admin approved $125 million bond deal that allowed Graphic Packaging to EXPAND THIS PAPER MILL IN KALAMAZOO DESPITE HER HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL DEPARTMENT receiving complaints from residents for years. Kalamazoo Mayor has also ignored residents. Image
