FLINT, Mich. – Bernie Sanders on Sunday welcomed the endorsement of former U.S. Sen. Donald W. Riegle, who represented Michigan in both the House of Representatives and the Senate from 1967 to 1995.

"The young people of America want their future back," Riegle said in a prepared statement. "They refuse to become a lost generation. Bernie is showing them that they can use their own individual power to speak – and organize – and act together – with other concerned citizens of all ages and backgrounds to work as a team – to take back their own government – to break the stranglehold of the special interest money and control."
