On the recordFebruary 1, 2023
As a result of failing policies by Biden and the Democrat-led Congress, American families continue to feel the impact of 40-year-high inflation in their pocketbooks. Last year, the cost of everyday products and services rose exponentially, destroying jobs. Since Biden took office, there has been a $10 trillion increase in spending above projections, $2.5 million increase on interest payments on growing Federal debt, $1.9 trillion on the American Rescue Plan, $745 billion on the inflation expansion act, $3.4 trillion on the infrastructure investment act, and $1 trillion in Biden executive actions. This irresponsible spending has hurt all Americans, and we must address it. The newly elected House Republican majority, ably led by Speaker Kevin McCarthy, is committed to creating jobs and a government that is accountable to the people. We must reestablish fiscal sanity. In conclusion, God bless our troops, who successfully protected America for 20 years, as the global war on terrorism continues, moving from the Afghanistan safe haven to America. Just yesterday, another terrorist was caught crossing the southern border. ____________________
