I support making sure that there are legal protects for everyone.
And I have to say, what motivates me every day and I know my Democratic colleagues is to remember that every day 14,000 people get up in the morning with insurance that go to bed at night without it and most of them because they lost their job.
As a Michigan senator, I feel a special responsibility to protect the Great Lakes. They are not only a source of clean drinking water for more than 30 million people but are also an integral part of Michigan's heritage and its economy.
We believe we need to tackle this problem with the same sense of urgency felt by our seniors who are forced to choose between medicine and food.
The reality for us in America is that we will never get out of debt with more than 15 million people out of work.
