Governor signs bill that includes millions for water crisis in Flint

Governor Rick Snyder  signed a supplemental spending bill that includes $9.35 million targeted for the public health crisis in Flint linked to high lead levels in drinking water. The bill, which got unanimous support in the legislature, approved even more money than the governor recommended. The city began supplying its residents with Flint River water in April of last year. Since then, scientists discovered elevated lead levels in drinking water and the blood of children.
