MI Congresswoman Haley Stevens stands up to Trump’s attacks on energy jobs and critical minerals funding
A congresswoman from Michigan wants to address food costs, and it starts with the rising costs from imported products.

Rep Haley Stevens says both parties need to come together, to get SNAP benefits back.
"Food should not be a partisan thing so the tools in the toolkit right now are available.”
“Just a handful of days ago, I was in Pontiac, Michigan, participating in a trunk or treat[...] parents were excited to be out there with their kiddos, but just a few minutes into the conversation, they were talking to me about the price of candy.”
“[...] Some were asking me about SNAP benefits and feeling very frustrated.”
[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.
"There's a lot at stake for Michigan during this shutdown. Too many hard-working people aren't getting paid.”
"Families are struggling to make ends meet.”
Stevens says health care could also get more expensive, with tax subsidies set to expire November 1st.
“It’s very frustrating to see a commander-in-chief who doesn’t care about paying federal workers—people who are working through a shutdown in this time. Trying to throw them away like yesterday’s trash is wholly unacceptable. We should be doing everything we can to ensure that people are compensated for their work and that their pocketbooks are protected.”
