MICHIGAN LAWMAKERS REACT TO CONTINUED FEDERAL GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN
[Congresswoman Stevens] says lawmakers have to come up with an agreement soon.
She's worried about Michiganders having to keep up with inflation, with groceries getting more expensive. And she says health care will get even pricier if Republicans succeed in cutting health care.
"Hundreds of thousands of Michigan residents are going to lose coverage and face higher costs... that's going to create some long-term damage for Michigan."
The health care subsidies are set to expire after next Saturday, November 1st. Stevens says health care will get more expensive after that.
She worries more people will start putting bills on credit cards, especially because the consumer price index isn't being released, and inflation is still high.
She says her No Tariffs on Groceries Act is designed to help folks.
