Tillman also said the locals told Sanders about rumors that the current bottled water distribution programs in the city may be reduced. The EPA referred Yahoo News to Michigan’s Department of Environmental Quality for questions about bottle water distribution in Flint. That agency’s public information officer would not confirm or deny rumors that the distribution program was ending.

“At this point the state has not made an announcement relating to the end of bottled water,” DEQ spokeswoman Tiffany Brown told Yahoo News.

Overall, Tillman said Sanders was “really concerned and moved” by the meeting. He said he was pleased Sanders returned but “wasn’t shocked” to see Sanders back in Flint given the work the senator’s presidential campaign volunteers did in the city.

“I understood that he was committed to doing more than speaking it over the microphone,” Tillman said of Sanders. “He was definitely committed to Flint.”
