Kim from Van Buren Township in my district called my office yesterday scared. She is in the process of buying a house and thinks she should stop because she is worried that the Nation's economy is going to tank.

I am staying. I am missing my goddaughter's wedding because I have a job to do. Where are Republicans? ____________________
