Don\u2019t ask us, ask the American people.\n\n\u201cRemember when Joe Biden and Kamala Harris took office inflation was under control, the economy was strong thanks to Trump tax cuts and there were fewer government regulations.\n\n\u201cSince Biden took over, the Senate Democrats were able to control this chamber. \u201cThey\u2019ve passed nearly $3 trillion in spending. They\u2019ve also given us the highest inflation in 40 years. Now Montanans tell me they can\u2019t afford the basics\u2014 food, gas housing.\n\n\u201cThe border was secure when Biden and Harris took office, but they reversed Trump policies. And now we see terrorists, we see criminals, we see murderers coming across the border, and literally murdering young women in our country.\n\n\u201cNow remember, Vice President Harris was appointed the \u2018border czar.\u2019 Whatever happened to that? Where has she been? 10 million illegal crossings later, there\u2019s been nothing done to end this crisis, only have made matters worse.\n\n\u201cOn foreign policy, instead of projecting strength, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have projected weakness, a very dangerous moment in our nation\u2019s history. Enemies are emboldened. Our allies don\u2019t think we\u2019ll back them up. And Senate Democrats did nothing to stop these dangerous and disastrous policies from the Biden-Harris administration.\n\n\u201cBy the way, the Democrats don\u2019t have a personnel problem on the ticket. They have a policy problem. The policies of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and the Senate Democrats have failed our country. And I\u2019m confident the American people will right this ship in less than four months.\u201d", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-07T21:24:45Z"]], "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://www.daines.senate.gov/2024/07/09/daines-joe-biden-kamala-harris-and-senate-democrats-have-failed-america/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8514979854226112, "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"}
