judge ruled on Tuesday that Michigan will pay $600 million to settle lawsuits related to the Flint water crisis as part of the largest state settlement in history. Attorney General Dana Nessel announced the decision on Tuesday, stating that a county judge had formally approved the settlement. The news comes over two years after another court issued preliminary approval in 2021. 'This historic settlement cannot undo the unimaginable hardship and heartbreaking health effects these families and children in Flint have endured,' Nessel said, per the Hill.
