From massive spending to unprecedented executive overreach, the Biden Administration is using every aspect of government to pursue radical policies that are hurting the American people.
And congressional Democrats are helping the Admin dodge inquiries into these failures...
A year ago, Biden claimed inflation was simply 'temporary.'
He was wrong.
Now, after months of denial from the White House, Americans face a recession that Democrats only plan to make worse with their 'Inflation and Recession Act.'
Joining Squawk Box, Rep. Kevin Brady discussed Democrats’ plans that will only make inflation worse:
“Our inflation overall is running about three points higher in America than it is in Europe and much of the rest of the world–that’s driven by Joe Biden’s policies in a big way."
"Month after month, prices outpace paychecks, slashing real wages by over 3% and costing the typical family an extra $5,000 a year. Experts predict we’ll hit $6 a gallon by August, with average households spending an extra $2,000 this year on gas alone." -

March 2021: Democrats' partisan stimulus bill passes.
July 2021: Biden calls inflation "temporary."
Jan 2022: Inflation nears an astounding 8%.
Feb 2022: Russia invades Ukraine...and immediately Biden pins the blame for astronomical gas prices on "Putin's Price Hike"...

⚡INFLATION IS SURGING⚡
💡 If Democrats want to get serious about addressing rising prices, they’ll stop threatening to make it worse with crippling tax hikes, more runaway spending, and a regulatory environment that will send energy costs higher.
Gas prices have hit record highs for two weeks straight and experts predict they'll surpass $6 per gallon by August.⛽ 📈
Meanwhile, the Biden Admin is touting higher gas prices as “an incredible transition” that will result in less dependence on fossil fuels.
Biden’s first executive order killed the Keystone XL Pipeline, contributing to the MASSIVE spike in energy prices. 📈
By banning new oil & gas leasing on federal land at the behest of Green New Deal enthusiasts, Biden attacked American families by making energy less affordable.
Speaking with Larry Kudlow, Rep. Kevin Brady said:
"Small businesses are very much aware that they’ve got just a bunch of challenges hammering them at one time. If I were the President, I’d be paying attention to those job creators because they have a big impact on the economy."
American workers have seen the largest decline in real wages since the data began being reported.
Working families paying rent or buying groceries are getting crushed thanks to Democrats’ policies.
After Biden’s first year in office, inflation shot up to a 40-year record of over 7%, which disproportionately hurts lower-income earners more than their wealthier counterparts. 📈
In other words, Bidenflation is a tax on lower-income Americans.
Democrats Say "Tax the Rich" But Mean "Tax Breaks for the Rich"
After fighting over how much more of their $4 trillion spending bill should go to the wealthy, Democrats will now send $125,000 to wealthy Americans.
90% of Americans won’t get anything.
Penthouse residents are cheering. The building janitor gets nothing.
Democrats' crippling tax hikes hit Main Street businesses and working families.
Rep. Kevin Brady: "I’m fighting hardest of course against these $3.5 trillion of tax hikes. They’ll be crippling for Main Street businesses, certainly they’ll land on working families, but most importantly, we’re going to drive U.S. jobs overseas."
Rep. Kevin Brady: Republican passed tax reform "set the stage for economic growth, the kind that can only come from enhancing free enterprise, increasing individual liberty, and expanding economic freedom.”
