REP. DEBBIE DINGELL: I support investing in America, and that's what he's doing. He's bringing jobs home. We're going to build CHIPS plants. Well, we've been debating this CHIPS field.

If we don't think we've seen enough of flooding and wildfires and drastic temperatures, how hot was it? 110 degrees out West. That's real. So I'm tired of everybody bickering about it.
