July 19, 2022

WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) released a new video featuring Tennesseans from across the state explaining the pain caused by Biden’s inflationary spending spree. Top economists, including those at Morgan Stanley, have blamed President Biden’s policies for causing the worst inflation since 1981.

 

“On the campaign trail, Joe Biden promised to cancel fossil fuels, and he’s following through on that promise. To make matters worse, he schemed with his fellow Democrats to force a $1.9 trillion spending package through Congress to fund scores of liberal pet projects. As a result, energy costs are through the roof, inflation is at a 41-year high, and gas is up 59.9%. Tennesseans have had enough. The key to lowering inflation is to stop this reckless spending,” said Senator Blackburn.

“Everything I put into my crops – from diesel fuel, to crop protectants, to fertilizer – has all gone up sky high.” – Chuck from Bradley County, Tenn.

 

“I’m looking at a $100 a week in gas… Two years ago, $30 would have been good for quite a while.” – Jennifer from Henry County, Tenn.

 

“It’s definitely made my rent increase, which has been difficult as a student paying for expenses on my own.” – Alexa from Hamilton County, Tenn.

 

I don’t even know when I go to the store if I’m going to get what I want, and I don’t know what the price is going to be from one day to the next.” – Adrian from Hardeman County, Tenn.

 

“[President Biden] cannot keep inflating our currency by spending money that we do not have on programs that we do not need, without the people who are actually working having to foot the bill.” – Gil from Blount County, Tenn.
