Ron RichterU.S. Senator John Barrasso (R-WY), chairman of the Senate Republican Conference, spoke on the Senate floor Wednesday about how the policies of the Biden-Harris administration have negatively impacted the economy. Sheridan Media’s Ron Richter has more.
Senator Barrasso said that under the Biden-Harris administration, prices have risen over 20 percent, making life unaffordable for hardworking American families.
Barrasso said what Vice President Kamala Harris is proposing if elected in November is more wasteful Washington spending.
Barrasso closed his floor speech by saying Republicans will work to lower prices, to unleash American energy, and to get this nation back on track.

Under Trumps proposal as he described during the Tuesday night debate he will impose a 10-20% tariff on all foreign goods and also a 60% tariff (import tax) on goods from China….if you think inflation is high now and Trump is elected in November your shopping at Wal-Mart or elsewhere is going to be much, much more expensive.

Don’t forget that inflation approached 6% before Covid- cleaning up the mess that Trump left us with required many hard choices- but current inflation is under 2.5% and we as country are much better off than any Western economy. Bear in mind that if you’re listening to Barrasso and you watched the debate, you’re taking advice from someone who believes that Trump won.

Major causes of inflation, the RADICAL OVERSPENDING AND TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH, that resulted in a 7 TRILLON deficit for the trump administration. Certainly that was the start of the inflationary spiral.

Inflation is caused by an over-spending Federal Gov’t and an Over-printing Federal Reserve.
We have the power to lower our sales tax rate, just by voting.
Lower taxes would help many who are struggling with high prices and inflation.
Lower Taxes Are Always Better!
