President Barack Obama will travel to Flint, Michigan, on May 4 to address residents in the city as they continue to struggle with toxic levels of lead in their water supply.
Obama had previously addressed the crisis in January, when he visited Detroit, but did not stop in Flint despite declaring a state of emergency in the city.
Obama is expected to be briefed on the federal efforts to alleviate the crisis. He will also listen to residents before delivering a speech.
