"Dems To Highlight Flint Crisis During Convention"

"Democrats will highlight the Flint, Mich., water crisis during the third night of the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday.

Flint Mayor Karen Weaver will address the convention during Wednesday's session and talk about the lead contamination problems that have hit her city since the Michigan government directed it to switch drinking water sources in 2014.

Weaver also appears in a video highlighting Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton's trip to the city in February."
