Steil defended his vote on the bill, which is also estimated to balloon the national debt by trillions of dollars. (When the lawmaker mentioned national debt as a pressing issue, one attendee interjected: 'Thanks to you!')</p><p>"He also voiced his support of Trump’s controversial immigration policies—a topic which elicited 'some of the loudest boos,' according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.</p><p>"More than one person in attendance referred to the Florida immigrant detention camp callously dubbed '<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AlligatorAlcatraz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AlligatorAlcatraz</span></a>' as a <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ConcentrationCamp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ConcentrationCamp</span></a>, which Steil objected to.

One attendee said, 'Southeast <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Wisconsin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Wisconsin</span></a> has not been represented by you. President Trump seems to run Southeast Wisconsin through you.' </p><p>"Another made similar remarks in the context of immigration. 'What I see happening to our <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Immigrant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Immigrant</span></a> population embarrasses me—horrifies me,' she said. <br>You have not raised a voice to complain about it. Where do I see your leadership? I see no leadership—I see you following Trump 100 percent of the time.'
