Progress Michigan Executive Director’s Statement on U.S. Congressman John Dingell’s Retirement
“We here at Progress Michigan want to thank Congressman Dingell for his 58 years of service representing Michiganders in the United States Congress,” said Lonnie Scott, executive director of Progress Michigan. “During his record-setting tenure on Capitol Hill, Congressman Dingell was a champion for progressive causes like the Affordable Health Care Act, and thanks to his hard work, thousands of Michiganders can now enjoy the comfort and security of having health care coverage. As someone who grew-up and still lives in Congressman Dingell’s district, I know that his service to our state and his constituents is unrivaled. Thank you, Congressman, for all you have done, your statesmanship will be sorely missed.”
