No Taxpayer Dollars to Protect Snyder's Flint Cronies

Gov. Snyder's office just admitted that Michigan taxpayers will be on the hook for the legal defense of Flint Emergency Managers Darnell Earley and Gerald Ambrose.

Why is this important?

Michigan taxpayers are already funding Gov. Snyder's personal legal defense for the Flint Water Crisis. Now Snyder's office says that taxpayers will also pay to defend Flint Emergency Managers Darnell Earley and Gerald Ambrose – the Snyder administration cronies running the city when the water turned deadly.

Enough is enough. Flint residents and fellow Michiganders shouldn’t be forced to pay to keep the officials who wronged them out of prison. It adds insult to injury – and it’s got to stop. Tell the Michigan Legislature to stop Gov. Snyder from raiding the public treasury today.
