July 28, 2022	Tweet - "Dem policies have helped drive our economy into a recession. At every turn since taking over in Washington, Democrats have ignored warnings & pushed policies that fueled inflation and undermined economic growth. Now American families are footing the bill for their bad decisions."	Sen. John Thune
July 28, 2022	Tweet - "Democrats' so-called "Inflation Reduction Act" is a joke. How are more IRS audits & higher taxes going to lower gas prices? How will tax credits for electric vehicles drive down the price of chicken, milk, fruits, or vegetables?"	Sen. John Thune
July 28, 2022	Tweet - "Democrats' latest version of their reckless tax-and-spending spree is the same old bad policies dressed up with a new name. This bill isn't going to reduce record-high inflation. It's more likely to further slow down our economy."	Sen. John Thune
July 21, 2022	Tweet - "This administration's policies have crushed American energy development. We need to get our energy producers off the sidelines and back into the game producing American energy."	Sen. John Thune
July 20, 2022	Tweet - Since Democrats took control in Washington: 🚨Food prices have risen astronomically 🚨Gas prices have nearly doubled 🚨Real average hourly earnings have declined at the fastest pace in 40 yrs This is the Biden economy. Now, Democrats want to make things worse by raising taxes."	Sen. John Thune
