House Committee on Natural Resources Ranking Member Bruce Westerman (AR-04) issued the following statement in response: “I am dismayed that Democrats continue to repackage the same poor policies that caused sky-high inflation, stick a buzzword in the name, and expect the American people to thank them while the economy inevitably continues to suffer," said Westerman. "When a party cannot simply admit that we are in a recession, it cannot be trusted to bring us out of one. I wholeheartedly voted no on the misleadingly named ‘Inflation Reduction Act.’ This tax and spend bill is a lie designed to bring down the force of higher taxes, 87,000 additional IRS agents, economy-killing climate programs, and hundreds of billions of dollars in deficit spending onto the backs and into the wallets of every American family. I will never support legislation that will spend us, our children, and our children’s children into the ground.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T02:59:24Z |
