Gary Peters: “So a minor correction on this track could have prevented this accident and saved these lives?”

I feel deeply honored to receive this recognition and I’m thrilled to celebrate this new community space alongside residents and partners.

I commend James Avery, Justus Thigpen Sr., and all the folks who are leading the charge on this revitalization project, and I was proud to be a federal partner in their efforts.

“While this is a positive step forward, the job is not finished until full operations are restored at every impacted Coast Guard station in Michigan, and I’ll keep pushing until that happens.”

We are once again on the cusp of journeying into deep space and this time we are going boldly and we are going to stay.
