Washington, D.C – This week, Senate Democrats led by Bernie Sanders, are laying the foundation to jam through their agenda of reckless tax hikes and a $3.5 trillion socialist spending spree, even though inflation is at a record high. According to a recent poll from the American Action Network, 75% of battleground district voters are concerned that the Democrats’ spending spree will cause inflation, making it harder for middle-class families to make ends meet.
Despite these concerns about inflation, Joe Biden lied to the American people about the threat of inflation in a speech this morning. Biden told the American people that the only way to fix the inflation problem is to spend more money. But the Democrats’ habit of writing multi-trillion-dollar checks is the reason hardworking Americans are now worried about being able to afford gas and groceries.
Will Senators Maggie Hassan, Mark Kelly, Raphael Warnock, Catherine Cortez Masto, and Michael Bennet vote in favor of this inflation-inducing, out-of-control tax and spending spree?
Statement from NRSC Spokeswoman Katharine Cooksey: “Democrats are so blinded by their desire to transform America into a socialist nation that they cannot see how disastrous their reckless tax-and-spend agenda is for hardworking Americans. With the trillions already spent this year, Joe Biden and Senate Democrats are causing prices of everyday goods, like gas and groceries, to soar. Instead of actually tackling the problem, Democrats are doubling down on their spending spree. Senate Democrats are burying their heads in the sand because their singular focus is to jam through nearly $4 trillion in wasteful, socialist spending – not to help American families and job creators.”
