Peters Statement on Passing of Representative Dale Kildee

DETROIT, MI – U.S. Senator Gary Peters (MI) released the following statement following the passing of former U.S. Representative Dale Kildee:

“Congressman Dale Kildee was a champion for Michigan workers and families. Throughout his prestigious career in Congress, he never forgot where he came from: Flint, Michigan. Each and every day, he fought for our state’s autoworkers and so that everyone had an opportunity not just to get by – but to get ahead.

“I was honored to serve in the House with Congressman Dale Kildee, and I always appreciated his advice and guidance in public service. Colleen and I extend our deepest sympathies and condolences to his loving wife Gayle, my good friend Dan, and to the entire Kildee family.”
