Flint, MI –(ENEWSPF)–March 6, 2016. At tonight’s Democratic Debate in Flint, Michigan, the two candidates began a candid conversation about how to address systematic environmental injustice in America, including proposing solutions for the Flint water crisis that echo those laid out by a coalition including the Sierra Club, the NAACP, and the SEIU earlier today. It was a stark contrast to Thursday’s Republican GOP debate where just one candidate — Marco Rubio — briefly discussed Flint and quickly pivoted to defending GOP Governor Rick Snyder. At the same debate, Senator Ted Cruz and Donald Trump both proposed gutting the Environmental Protection Agency.
