Two years ago, the Inflation Reduction Act passed and was sent to President Biden's desk. I am proud to have supported this historic piece of legislation that put people over politics and is continuing to help lower costs, create good-paying jobs, invest in fighting climate change, and build safer communities.
The Inflation Reduction Act tackles so many of the most pressing issues Americans are facing:
Lowering prescription drug costs by empowering Medicare to negotiate the price of prescription drugs and creating a $35 cap on insulin for those on Medicare at the beginning of this year.
Establishing progressive energy policies that combat climate change, create jobs, and expand America’s energy independence.
Supporting American families across the country by lowering energy bills and inflation and improving service and support at the IRS.
At a pivotal time when Americans needed help, Democrats delivered with the Inflation Reduction Act. As a nation, we’re seeing the impacts of the Inflation Reduction Act, and we will continue to reap the benefits of this legislation for decades to come.
If we’re going to get back to a Congress that passes meaningful legislation like the Inflation Reduction Act, we must take back the House in November. With MAGA Republicans in control, the House has been in chaos and gridlock, and they’ve failed to deliver for Americans.
Congressman Sanford Bishop is serving his sixteenth term in the United States House of Representatives, representing the constituents of the Second Congressional District of Georgia. A consensus builder that works with members on both sides of the aisle, Congressman Bishop is uniquely dedicated to his constituents and has demonstrated himself as a leader inside of Congress.
