Political Quotes

“Right now, American families are facing higher prices and supply chain shortages in our Nation's grocery stores. Right now, the cost of beef is up 10 percent from last year. The cost of bacon is up 15 percent. The cost of oranges is up 16 percent. Chicken is up 19 percent. The cost of eggs is up more than 30 percent. Last week, I spoke to a mother in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, who told me that she was still unable to find baby food on store shelves. When she could, that price had shot up nearly 15 percent. These price hikes are unsustainable, and as prices are rising faster than wages, families doing their grocery shopping are forced to make hard decisions about what they can buy and what they can provide for their families. Inflation is a tax on all Americans, and the skyrocketing costs that we are seeing right now are a direct result of President Biden's failed policies, policies that pumped trillions of dollars into our economy without a second thought about what that money would do to Pennsylvania families in my district. It is time to stop this runaway spending, and it is time to get our economy moving once again. ____________________”
