LANSING, Mich. (AP) — First-term Sen. Elissa Slotkin of Michigan delivered the Democratic response to Trump’s joint congressional address last night. Slotkin told Americans that Trump’s policies would make them pay “in every part of your life.” Her speech comes as the Democratic party struggles to find a unified message against Trump.  Slotkin gave the rebuttal last night after just two months serving in the U.S. Senate. She won the battleground state's open Senate seat over Republican Mike Rogers in November while Trump carried the state in the presidential race.
