Criticism towards President Biden's economic policies has intensified, with several political figures attributing the rise in living costs directly to his administration's decisions. Senator Tim Scott highlighted a nearly 14% increase in gas prices this year, attributing it to what he describes as reckless spending and attacks on energy independence. The GOP Majority Whip pointed out an additional annual cost of $11,400 for American families to cover essentials, while RNC Research noted a significant increase in grocery prices, with a $100 grocery list now costing nearly $140. Rep. David Kustoff and Tom Fitton echoed these sentiments, mentioning Americans are having to dip into savings and take on additional jobs to afford everyday goods, with Fitton specifically citing a 37% increase in grocery prices since 2019. Rep. Jason Smith criticized the administration for a general price increase of over 18% since Biden took office, accusing the President of using excuses for political benefit.
Everything has become more expensive under President Biden. While he keeps throwing every excuse at the wall to see what sticks for his political benefit, the American people won’t forget how prices have skyrocketed – up over 18% since Biden took office.
Hard working Americans getting second and even third jobs -- just to afford the staples of life under #Bidenomics https://t.co/WIoKnszOLR
Biden inflation update -- 37% price increase for groceries! A typical grocery purchase that would have cost $100 in 2019 costs $137 today: @WSJ.
Americans are dipping into their savings account and racking up credit card debt just to pay for everyday goods. Families cannot continue to pay the price for Biden’s failed economic policies. https://t.co/kTIPp2OCt0
BIDENOMICS: The same grocery list that was $100 a few years ago now costs nearly $140 under Biden. https://t.co/7TfJooRfqT
Hardworking American families are footing the bill for Bidenomics. Under this administration, it’s costing an additional $11,400 each year just to cover the essentials.
Gas prices are up nearly 14% this year. From reckless spending driving up inflation to attacks on our energy independence, the far-left Biden agenda has failed working Americans every step of the way.
