Bernie Sanders in Kalamazoo: I will 'make no apologies
Bernie Sanders is accusing Hillary Clinton of mischaracterizing his position on the federal government's 2008 bailout of the auto industry on the eve of Michigan's presidential primary.
The Vermont senator says at a Monday rally in Kalamazoo that he voted in 2008 for the rescue of the auto industry in the Senate when it was a stand-alone issue and not included in a bailout for Wall Street. The Senate measure ultimately failed and President George W. Bush approved more than $13 billion in federal aid to the automakers.
Clinton accused Sanders of opposing the auto bailout during Sunday night's presidential debate in Flint, Michigan. The state is home to the U.S. auto industry.
Sanders says Clinton is on the defensive because of his criticism of her for supporting bad trade deals, leading her to "say things that are just not quite correct."
