I don't think anybody can defend that when those organizations and high wealth individuals pay less in Federal income taxes than a teacher in my communities of Bay City or a nurse in Saginaw or a factory worker in Midland.

It doesn't substantially cut taxes for working families. It certainly doesn't deal with some of the needs of the most at-risk people.

I appreciate the opportunity to finish my point. There will always be an argument to look the other way, to get cheaper products by looking the other way when it comes to some of the worst practices in manufacturing on this planet. Of…

the notion that Americans, like Ms. Hayward and others, have to deal with the frightening reality of identity theft is something that we have to take very seriously

some of the cuts that could be proposed... could force the agency to close field offices and lay off, quite literally, thousands of people

the insulin cap is going to save significant money.

The term 'free trade' is a bit of a loaded term.

I was proud of the work that the Democratic leadership, particularly Mr. Neal, did to improve that trade agreement.

I share his concern regarding Chinese solar and the circumvention of American tariffs.
