More than a year after he left Congress, former Rep. Dan Kildee’s life — from the outside, at least — looks remarkably similar to how it looked before he served.
His office building at the Community Foundation of Greater Flint, in Michigan, is just a few buildings away from the office where he served as county treasurer and founded the Genesee County Land Bank in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
His commute home each night is about 13 minutes.
He’s even still doing some work on land use issues, which was a centerpiece of his pre-congressional life.
“I don’t really think I’ve ever changed jobs in my life,” he said, acknowledging that “some jobs have a longer commute and a different toolbox.”
