Ilhan Omar Statement in Support of Inflation Reduction Act | 2022-08-08 | 2022 | 2022-08 | Democrat | House | MN | Ilhan Omar | O000173 | omar.house.gov | omar | https://omar.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | MINNEAPOLIS—Rep. Ilhan Omar issued the following statement after the Senate passed the Inflation Reduction Act. “The Inflation Reduction Act is a historic bill. With the Senate’s passage, we are one step closer to passing the biggest climate bill ever, lowering drug prices, taxing wealthy corporations, and more. The bill includes a much needed tax on corporate buybacks of their own stocks, averts a benefits cliff by extending health care subsidies for 3 years, allows Medicare to negotiate drug prices, and would reduce carbon emissions by roughly 40 percent by 2030. “Is it perfect? No. I oppose expansion of fossil fuel leasing and I am disappointed that key elements like taxing wealthy private equity speculators and capping insulin prices for private insurers were removed. “But the bill is a massive step forward for Minnesotans and I’m extremely proud of the role the Congressional Progressive Caucus played in pushing for the best deal possible in the face of conservative resistance.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T02:59:24Z |
