Sierra Club Response to Governor Snyder's State of the State Address
We are glad Governor Snyder acknowledged that the people in Flint have
been without clean drinking water for over 2 years now. It is beyond time to
fix this problem and the underlying issues that caused it” said Mike Berkowitz, Legislative
Director of the Sierra Club Michigan Chapter. “We call on Governor Snyder
and the state legislature to repeal the emergency manager law, improve Michigan’s
Lead and Copper Rule, establish citizen oversight for the Department of
Environmental Quality, and create jobs for Michigan workers by funding environmentally
sustainable infrastructure.”
