It's starting to roll now, fellas.
My wife contacted the local ABC affiliate and they interviewed her about the topic. ABC12 out of Flint might have it on the website later.
(No, I wasn't able to give a shout out to the Pelicans as I wasn't around for the interview.)
Hopefully, those in Washington will get word of the problem and listen up.
She also contacted our state reps.
