Political Quotes

“Across my district, Michigan families are having to pay more for gas, for groceries, for cars. You name it, there is sticker shock everywhere you look. In fact, inflation attacks on everyone increased every month since President Biden took office. As Americans are struggling to pay for skyrocketing costs of daily necessities, we should be doing something to address these pocketbook challenges. Instead, this week, we are considering another round of massive spending bills that will make matters worse on top of massive spending bills that we have already expended. Unparalleled and unchecked government spending is not the solution. It is a root cause of rising inflation--and did I mention that is a tax on everyone? Again, this reckless spending and subsequent inflation are effectively attacks on the American people, their families, their workplaces, and, in fact, their livelihoods. We can't afford to continue down this path. It is hurting too many families and their financial security. It is time we return to proven economic policies that create jobs, increase wages, and do not prolong an inflationary crisis that--did I mention?--is a tax on everyone. ____________________”
