Rep. Duncan Responds to Inflation Topping 8.5% under Joe Biden

Press Release

Date: April 12, 2022
Location: Washington, DC

Congressman Jeff Duncan issued the following statement as inflation reached a 41-year high of 8.5% in March:

"Americans are paying more for virtually everything because of Joe Biden's reckless spending to fund his radical agenda," said Congressman Jeff Duncan. "This inflation rate is unsustainable and is essentially increased taxation on all Americans."

"Wages are not keeping pace with inflation, which puts Americans in a difficult place financially as they struggle to keep food on the table and gas in their cars," said Congressman Jeff Duncan. "This is not transitory, Putin's price hike, or the result of corporate greed, as the Biden Administration has claimed. Make no mistake -- this is Bidenflation. I will continue fighting back against Joe Biden's radical spending proposals that will only exacerbate this economic crisis. This is destructive to our economy, and Americans cannot afford a Joe Biden presidency."
