I am very glad to see this--and am sure the mayor of Flint and those affected are also. Yet, Hillary is being hit upon by Sander fans in LBN once again. Shameful.

Hillary Clinton partners with Flint mayor on city water initiative
Democratic Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton smiles as she gets a smattering of applause and a standing ovation from hundreds of Flint residents next to Flint Mayor Karen Weaver before speaking about the Flint water crisis Sunday, Feb. 7, 2016 at the House of Prayer Missionary Baptist Church in Flint.

FLINT, MI Mayor Karen Weaver will be joined by Chelsea Clinton to announced a water initiative just a few hours ahead of the the March 6 Democratic presidential debate in Flint.
A press conference has been scheduled for Sunday afternoon at Mott Community College, 1401 E. Court St. to announce the "Flint WaterWorks" initiative, in partnership with Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
"Flint WaterWorks is a new program which will provide Flint youth with jobs distributing clean water, healthy food and nutrition information and services to families in need," reads a statement from the city.
..................................
Clinton visited House of Prayer Missionary Baptist Church in Flint last month to discuss the city's ongoing water crisis, as did fellow candidate Bernie Sanders who held a community forum Feb. 25 at Woodside Church on the city's east side.
