Michigan Democratic Congress Members Speak Out After Voting No on GOP Spending Package

Some Michigan Democratic members of Congress spoke out Wednesday night, explaining why they voted against the GOP spending package to reopen the government.

“Tonight, I voted no on the Republicans’ spending bill because their plan fails Michiganders, ignores working families, and offers lip service instead of actually lowering costs for our families.”

“Republicans have time and time again voted to raise health care costs and threatened health care coverage for families who depend on it. I won’t rubber-stamp a plan that leaves Michiganders worse off. I will keep fighting to lower costs, expand affordable health care, and create jobs while investing in our manufacturing economy to support the hard-working families across our state.”
