NEW: President Donald Trump says he is granting a pardon to Tina Peters, who was convicted on state charges related to tampering with Colorado's election systems. Legal experts say presidential pardons do not apply to state charges.

You should never have to choose between putting food on your table, covering your rent, and paying your health insurance premium.
But for more than 20 million Americans, that already difficult decision will become even harder if Affordable Care Act subsidies are allowed to expire.

Health care costs are soaring and Senate Republicans just voted to let ACA tax credits expire.
Thousands of Michigan families depend on these credits for affordable care and this will have disastrous consequences.
As your next Senator, I'll keep fighting for lower health care costs for Michigan.

Several Republican congresswomen have been complaining that their party’s leaders, especially Mike Johnson don’t take them seriously.
They want women to agree whatever they’re doing & basically to stand there, smile & clap.
Not surprising.
