So what is the answer there and what is the answer Democrats have for voters who say it costs too much money? Well, I think at the state level, we've done a lot to put money back in people's pockets.

We have been able to make sure that we're feeding all 1.4 million kids in Michigan breakfast and lunch. That's 10 meals a week. (03:26–03:35)
