flint is what happens when we dismiss experts. flint is what happens when we dismiss people.lint is what happens when saving money is more important than public health. i am a pediatrician. every day i use science to protect and restore the health of my patients, my kids. about a year ago, my research proved that our contaminated water in the flint was leaching lead into the bodies of our children. [boos] and i took a risk. i walked out of my clinic to speak up publicly for my kids. [cheers] and i was attacked. but when you're fighting for children, youth fight back. [cheers] and i was allowed and i was stubborn -- i was loud and i was stubborn. science spoke truth to power. science is not an alternative fact. us totime for all of fight back against those who deny science and those who do science. it is time for all of us to step out of our clinics, classrooms, and labs. we need to make ourselves known into the halls of government. we need to hear all of your voices. science.march for and today, i march for our flint kids. i am fighting for our strong, resilient, readable fli

that is what happened in flint.or the sake of flinint kids and for all over this world, i march for science. [cheers] amy: that w was little miss flit ,nd dr. mona hanna-attisha addressing the crorowd. i saidid down with dr. mona and began by asking her why she came to washington for the march. >> how couldld i not come toto washingtonon? how could you not be a part o of the march for science? in my everyday is a pediatrician, i am moved by science. i am guided by science and by the care of patients. the flint store is a story of science. it is a science to unravel thiss unbelievable tragedy. we need to believe in science. we need to invest in science. if not, we have the risk of seeing many more flints to come. amy: explain how you used a science to ever cover -- uncover what took place. >> ousted in my job as a pediatrician and as a researcher. what i heard about the possibility of lead in thehe wateter, i stoppeded sleeping. lead is damming for children and for generations to come. when i heard there was light on

is tragic because after flint it has been my charge to prevent another flint. of this was absolutely preventable. no child should be exposed to led from any source. we need to learn from our mistakes and make these regulations and protects stronger. >> as i mentioned at the top of this conversation, you are sitting in troy, michigan, down the road a bit from flint. but you are sitting in a backdrop in front of a medical center, which leads me to ask how in fingerprint tlint the me community has responded. what say you about your increased respect for the medical community in flint? >> yeah. so the medical community has played a huge role in not only exposing this crisis, having my back but really intervening. in our medical clinics, there is a lot of the interventions to protect the children are taking place. for example, early literacy programs and trauma informed care. a lot of the mental health services, behavior health services and a lot of the reassurance and hope that we're trying to instill in our community. you know, i see patients every day and i've be

everyone focused on flint, flint really became the cat list for what the conversation was.ok at other places, you know, like ranger texas, where you say residents there don't have the money, counsel il doesn't have the money. who is supposed to fix the problem, then? >> well, unfortunately, if you live in poor towns and cities in the united states right now, the reality is that you get the water you can afford. and if that water does not meet federal safety standards or is not seussable for bathing or showering, that is just your tough luck. what is even worse in many of these towns we're not telling people that the water is not safe, like with michigan we had to show neighborhoods of children with elevated blood lead, 12 people died from legion airs disease before anything was done and state and federal money was mobilized to help give flint the water it deserves, safe water. >> trevor: that is helping to people and the government can't help, than what can people do for themselves? because they have to do something? >> well, aside from getting on "the daily show," town by

but if you thought flint was an isolated case, think again.e flint water crisis, you know that totally avoidable manmade disaster we all cared about. i cared about it because i tweeted about it. turns out my flash vism, worked. flint drinking water meets federal regulation on lead, which dun mean there is no lead in the water there is just an acceptable amount of lead in the water. which is basically like telling your kids, there is just an acceptable amount of killer clowns underneath thrair bed. knew 230r whatever reason the citizens of flint aren't celebrating. >> i've lost all trust in the system. >> we are still playing the highest rates in the united states for water we can't use safely. >> we are still being use told to use faucet filters or bottled water. >> flint is just the tip, a coring to a report 4 million americans could be drinking toxic water and would never know. the top of that list ranger, texas, which is why they sen me, the only correspondent on the show to the middle of west texas. >> ranger texas, a once thriving oil boo

there is 100,000 people in flint.nions and we have personal stories that need to be shared to sashgs look, if you continue to roll back regulations, the rest of the country is going end up like flint. that's why a bad thing. talking about the 200 people that died from bacterial pneumonia and holding calls like this i mean, we've been through this with town halls where we get shut down. we're not allowed to echak. how can you express pain and sufferg in two minutes? >> first of all, let me know whether you also put in your name. must be two, if you were to be selected, you were a part of this conversation, what's the one thing that you would ask for from the epa on this call? i know you've been very active on this topic. >> number one, no. i don't know anyone who has put in their name. you know what? we didn't know in flint. we didn't know this was a widespread thick. that makes me worried that they're not trying to hear from actual residents. that's a concern that i'll be blasting out to the actual residents this week

. >> bill nye the science guy, also the pediatrician in flint who broke the flint water crisis story. amy: she has a fascinating story. she is an iraqi american scientist. she says if she were not allowed into this country, she never would have been able to do what she did in flint. she is also talking about immigration and science. >> absolutely. science knows no borders. the natural world and rivers and the atmosphere in the air that we breathe is something that transcends boundaries. we have to protect. scientists are the ones that are gaining insight about how we can safeguard a safe, collective future. amy: rush holt is one of the people, the former congressman. why rush holt? this is really unprecedented. scientists and science institutions don't generally do advocacy. there have been robust debates for decades about neutrality in science, is science political or not. it is really refreshing to see this coming out party for a new movement of scientists who are engaged in the public sphere, advocating on behalf of science and the communities who are going to be hurtist by these a

some have said that there's been no moves. >> that critique is fair and we know what is wrong in flinthere's resources required to address it. we know that making water safe for our most vulnerable population is an important challenge, not just in flint but in other cities that requires federal oversight and resources. we know some of the problems. we want the president to be there because it draws attention to it. i'm not sure that a photo op is what is needed and i don't know if this poll is necessarily about whether or not president trump has visited flint or other cities in the united states, right? because the reports reporting in the poll are actually responding to the sort of climate around race, which is important. they're responding to things like the muslim ban and to the kind of vitriol we've seen displayed around issues of race and that misses the mark. if we look at access to health care, you just did a segment on the climate march. if you look at who is most vulnerable and exposed to climate change, not just in our nation but around the world, that's folks of color. when

that still persists for people in flint. epa gave them $100 million for infrastructure upgrades.he cbc received any assurance from the white house as they are committed to helping that city? >> it is not clear. the cbc has made clear to the president that if we move forward with any significant transportation and infrastructure program that we cannot leave behind people like those in flint who the government failed. particularly the governor of michigan. all of us should bear responsibility in trying to rectify the situation. donald trump promised inner city america he would focus on the challenges in flint or detroit or chicago. we have seen no evidence of that to date. that is unfortunate. it is consistent with how he approached things over the first 100 days. he promised the american people a field of dreams. what we are left with is a graveyard of broken promises. >> congress member hakeem jeffries, thank you. >>> we have heightened tensions overseas after new aggression from north korea. a ballistic missile launch yesterday and appeared to fail minutes later making it the ni
