treat the Flint, MI, water emergency as a Katrina-level concern.

Created by G.M. on January 28, 2016

Flint, MI, has been individually and severally POISONED. The scale of this event is almost unprecedented in American history. From the first tragic mistake, the harnessing of the Flint River to a municipal system without detailing a comprehensive environmental study, the handling of this tragedy has been criminal. In other words using as a feedstock a toxic resource. One estimation of the river's acid level would have precluded its use.
The damage has been multiplied through administrative neglect.
We call for federal government involvement on a scale equal to its participation in the New Orleans Katrina debacle.
Signing this petition is a heartfelt cry for relief to this ravaged, entire municipality.
