I remind my colleague that his vote against this bill is a vote to deny about 32 percent of the workers in his district in Michigan an average raise of about $2,300 a year. And in the CBO report that he cited, three of the most recent studies cited in that report show an actual increase in jobs, not a decrease. I yield 1 minute to the gentlewoman from Washington (Ms. Jayapal), the co-chair of the Progressive Caucus, a gentlewoman who can talk specifically about Seattle.
