Hi John,
This Friday marks the second anniversary of the so-called Inflation Reduction
Act—a bill that promised to ease the pain of rising prices but instead has done
just the opposite.
As we reflect on the two years since this ironically named legislation passed,
it’s clear that the bill has only expanded reckless government spending and
fueled the very inflation it was supposed to curb.
Here’s a few words that I shared the other day:
“The so-called Inflation Reduction Act was a trillion-dollar grab-bag of
special interest giveaways that was never intended to reduce inflation. The
name of the bill should be a reminder of Washington’s cynical attempt to fool
everyday Americans into thinking this was anything but a political wish-list
bill.
“Vice President Kamala Harris was the deciding vote on the IRA, which means
any one of the Senators up for reelection this year who voted for it could have
stopped it. Instead, every single one decided to go along with their Party to
support another trillion dollars in spending when inflation was already raging.
The costs people are paying today are a direct result of Washington moving full
speed ahead on its reckless spending binge despite repeated warnings. Voters
should hold those Senators accountable, and ask them a simple question: would
they do it again?”
When the Inflation Reduction Act was signed into law on August 16, 2022, it
was touted as a solution to soaring costs.
Here’s what we got instead:
📈 Americans are paying $11,400 more for the same standard of living as in 2021
📈 Car maintenance is up 30.2% <[link removed]>
and new cars are up18.7% <[link removed]>, so
owning a car is starting to feel like a luxury.
📈 Rent is up 30.7% <[link removed]>, making
it harder for would be first time home buyers to save for a down payment.
As such, 78%
<[link removed]>
of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck. Unable to save for a house, a
medical emergency, or retirement.
The American Dream is slipping further away for countless families, as wages
fail to keep pace with the rising cost of living. This is Bidenomics in
action—a policy agenda that prioritizes political wish lists over the needs of
everyday Americans.
It’s time to take a stand
<[link removed]>
. We need to oppose these destructive economic policies that are making life
harder for all of us. Let’s demand real solutions that empower individuals and
promote economic freedom, not more empty promises and government overreach.
Can you please ask your lawmakers to reject bad economic policies like the
Inflation Reduction Act?
