Inflation just hit a three-decade high, Missouri gas prices are soaring at 74% above last year, home heating costs are skyrocketing, and grocery bills are out of control. Instead of prioritizing our country’s most urgent concerns like the supply chain crisis or unchecked inflation, Speaker Pelosi doubled down on taxing, spending and expanding government at an unprecedented rate. It is now up to the Senate to stop this madness and say enough is enough.” Estimates show H.R. 5376 is expected to cost more than double the $1.75 trillion cost claimed by President Biden and Speaker Pelosi when ignoring their budget gimmicks. The President’s massive spending plan would raise taxes on American businesses by $800 billion. According to analysis by the nonpartisan Joint Committee on Taxation, one-third of these corporate tax hikes will ultimately be paid by the middle class, breaking President Biden’s promise not to raise taxes on working Americans. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T20:30:49Z |
