Mich. State Workers in Flint Got Fresh Bottled Water 8 Months Before Residents Were Told Water Wasn’t Safe
In January 2015, while cries from residents of Flint, Mich., that something was wrong with the tap water went ignored, state officials made provisions to have watercoolers installed at the State Office Building in Flint. It would be some eight months before city officials would admit that the tap water was unsafe to use, according to an email obtained by Progress Michigan, Vox reports.
