Summary

Congressman Tom Barrett discusses his efforts to bring home Paul and Christy Akeo from a Mexican prison over a timeshare dispute, successfully negotiating their release in 32 hours. He highlights his first bill, the Clear Communications for Veterans Claims Act, aimed at improving VA communication with veterans. Barrett also addresses the impact of tariffs in Michigan, emphasizing the need for a strong manufacturing base for economic and national security reasons. Later, Tennessee Attorney General Jonathan Skrmeti addresses the Supreme Court case on birthright citizenship, emphasizing the ambiguity around the 14th Amendment and the impact of illegal immigration.
