This legislation will help lower costs for working people by reigning in health care and prescription drug costs, investing in American manufacturing to bolster the production of clean energy, and ensuring billion-dollar corporations pay their fair share in taxes. The savings achieved in these areas will also decrease the national debt by $300 billion over the next decade.\n\n\u201cThe Inflation Reduction Act is a job creator first and foremost,\u201d said Congressman Norcross. \u201cInvesting in clean energy by manufacturing solar panels, offshore wind components, and batteries domestically means our energy future is going to be made in America. I\u2019m proud to report that my offshore wind incentives are included in this bill, which will help grow South Jersey\u2019s offshore wind industry. That means good-paying jobs and reducing our dependence on oil and gas from places like Russia.\n\nThe Inflation Reduction Act includes an approximately $370 billion investment in climate change \u2013 by far the single biggest climate investment in U.S. history. The investment will reduce the nation\u2019s greenhouse gas emissions by 40% by 2030.\n\n\u201cThis bill will reduce prescription drug costs for our seniors by allowing Medicare to negotiate drug pricing,\u201d continued Congressman Norcross. \u201cIt will lower health care costs and level the playing field for working people in New Jersey by making sure billion-dollar corporations pay their fair share in taxes, just like the rest of us.\u201d\n\nThe Inflation Reduction Act will make life more affordable, including by:", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-03-30T11:08:25Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://norcross.house.gov/press-releases?ID=5A9E63F2-948A-4476-A65F-42C79ADB181A"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.6049699150025845, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
