this bill makes me sick to my stomach. I have met with over 200 manufacturers in my district, and the one thing that I hear over and over again is that the cost of everything is going up. This administration is now, yet again, trying to raise prices on working Michiganders. This bill in Michigan will kick 750,000 people off their Medicaid. It will eliminate critical investments in Michigan manufacturing. It means, for Michiganders, that costs will continue to go up and up. As someone who served as the chief of staff on the U.S. auto rescue in the Obama administration, I know what it means to see Michiganders struggling. I know what it means when Michiganders have to choose between paying their bills and paying for lifesaving healthcare, all while billionaires get a tax cut. This bill, Mr. Speaker, makes me sick to my stomach, and I urge everyone to vote ``no.``
