Although the CHIPS Act contains provisions that are intended to strengthen an important sector of our economy, Democrats have turned CHIPS into a path to higher taxes and more inflation that will fall on the shoulders of middle-class Americans — adding more pain on top of President Biden’s economic recession,” Guest said. Today, the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) announced a consecutive quarter of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) decline in 2022 — meeting the technical definition of a recession. “A recession is never good news, but Americans are going to be in a much tougher spot if Biden, Pelosi, and Schumer raise taxes during this one,” Guest continued.
