“I come to the floor to join my colleague from Kansas, Senator Marshall, in talking about the economy. President Biden has spent the last 2 weeks trying to define and then redefine what has been come to be known as Bidenomics. The President now wants to talk about his economic record. Well, I would say, let us have that conversation. Here is what Bidenomics means to working families in my home State of Wyoming. It means record inflation. It means hollowed out savings. And it means crushing interest rates. Bidenomics is a radical recipe causing more and more Americans to fall further and further behind. It means families are faced with tough decisions every single day--decisions about how they are going to make ends meet; decisions about what they can afford at the grocery store, how much gas they could put in the vehicle; decisions as they are trying to pay their bills sitting at the kitchen table. Bidenomics is spelling a summer of suffering for every single American. Before the President took office, inflation was practically nonexistent, 1.4 percent. But under the Biden-Harris administration, prices have risen 16.6 percent. American households are spending $900 more per month just to keep up. The average household has spent over $2,300 more on energy alone since Joe Biden came to the White House-- that is to fill a tank of gas, to keep the lights on, to heat the house in the winter and cool it in the summer.…”
