Statement by Congressman Dan Kildee on Tax Liens for Unpaid Water Bills in Flint

Congressman Dan Kildee (MI-05) issued the following statement after reports that some Flint residents recently received notices of potential tax liens being placed on their properties for unpaid water bills during the water crisis:

"Flint families should not have to pay for water that they still cannot drink, and they certainly should not lose their homes over this ongoing water crisis that was caused by the callous decisions of state government. It is unfortunate that Governor Snyder ended water credits for Flint families. I opposed this decision because Flint families deserve support from the state until there is confidence in the water system again."
