My legislation, the No Troops in Our Street Act, ensures that no president can turn our soldiers against our citizens by restoring checks and balances in these domestic deployments.
Since July, I have been clear. If you want my vote on a deal, it has to do something to bring down the cost of health care.
Today, I joined @SenatorBaldwin and @SenSanders to force a vote on a one-year extension of the https://t.co/6af0Z7Wsqs credits.
Tonight, I am voting no on a procedural vote on an appropriations deal that would re-open the government. Since July, I have been clear: to earn my vote, Republicans would have to do something to bring down the cost of health care for working and middle-class Michiganders. The promise of a vote in over a month does not meet that threshold.
For me, this was never about politics or Beltway gamesmanship. President Trump’s ‘Big, Beautiful Bill’ has plunged America into a health care crisis. That emergency has real life victims, and in Michigan, the average price of health care is increasing across the board, with some expected to see their premiums more than double.
What’s clear is that the old way of doing business continues to fail America. Leadership is about changing and adapting when there is real need, and unless we hear that, we will fail to meet the moment.
Holding American’s pay hostage because you want to give healthcare to illegals is a bad take. Thank God you’re retiring and Mike Rogers is replacing you
I am proposing a very simple deal to reopen the government:
- Include a one-year clean extension of the current health care tax credits to immediately address Americans’ rising costs.
- Create a bipartisan committee that will continue negotiations on reforms ahead of next year’s enrollment period
Compromise is a two-way street. If Republicans want the votes, they need to work with us to address this health care crisis.
To everyone who thinks Zohran Mamdani will force New York to be Muslim:
A Muslim has never knocked on my door trying to convince me to convert.
Just saying.
It’s always interesting to me how ppl will have an issue with other cultures eating their food with their hands but pizza, burgers, hot dogs, wings, ribs, etc are all acceptable lol but not this - this is dirty???
I don’t think y’all realize how exhausting it is to constantly hear about Muslims being the victim when you kill thousands of people in the name of Islam and tell people it’s fine because “Allah” said to.
