| Hello John, In Biden’s America, car ownership is quickly becoming a luxury many Americans can’t afford. It will only get worse if policies banning or limiting the purchase of gas-powered cars are pushed through. Read on to find out how you can speak up. At AFP, we're hearing stories from hardworking Americans nationwide who are feeling the effects of Bidenomics. Emily Greene, AFP-PA Deputy State Director, recently spoke with Wayne, an Uber driver from Ardmore, PA. Wayne is frustrated with rising costs of housing and car expenses. "It's not just one thing," he said, "it's everything." Bidenomics creates a vicious cycle: it forces Americans like Wayne to take on rideshare jobs like Uber to make ends meet. Meanwhile, rising car expenses cut into their pay, making it even harder to get by. THE BIGGER PICTURE The economic policies of the current administration, dubbed "Bidenomics," have led to a noticeable rise in the costs of cars and other essentials. Since President Biden took office, prices have risen 19.3%, and the national debt is approaching $35 trillion. These figures reflect a broader economic reality that many Americans are grappling with daily. Lawmakers supporting Bidenomics-like policies are making things worse. For instance, Reps. Josh Harder and Mike Levin from California voted for such policies, resulting in residents paying $9,312 more on transportation since 2021. TAKING ACTION TOGETHER Rising vehicle costs are bad enough, but Biden’s potential gas-powered car ban will force many to buy electric vehicles they don’t want and can't afford. We must tell Biden’s administration they can't dictate our vehicle choices. Even though Biden has withdrawn from the presidential race, many in Congress support similar policies. Please take a moment to tell your representatives to reject gas-powered car bans and uphold Americans’ right to choose the best vehicle for their family. |
