Dingell, Tlaib kayak Rouge River on 50th anniversary of river catching fire
Michigan Reps. Dingell and Tlaib, both congressional lawmakers from Detroit paddled the Rouge River on Tuesday. Fifty years ago this week, the Rouge River caught fire when an oil spill leaked onto the surface of the water and a worker accidentally dropped a torch, igniting the oil. The flames climbed 50 feet high and kicked off an environmental movement that's still rippling today.
