Rep. Jerry Carl: The Inflation Reduction Act and Kamalanomics

Two years ago, Vice President Kamala Harris was the deciding vote to pass the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). This bill is flooded with Far-Left policies and spending, which have only hurt Americans. The Biden-Harris Administration increased our national deficit significantly, recklessly spent taxpayer dollars through the redistribution of money from Medicare to woke, so-called green handouts, and drained the pockets of the American worker.

Now more than ever, Americans are feeling the effects of Kamalanomics. 

Kamala Harris is responsible for this Far Left scheme, making American life totally unaffordable. The IRA was supposed to cut our deficit by nearly $60 billion, yet it is projected to increase the deficit by over $796 billion.

Not only is Kamala Harris responsible for increased federal spending, but she carelessly raided Medicare causing patients to face the consequences. $307 billion has been taken from Medicare and put into tax credits to fulfill the Biden-Harris clean energy agenda. The beneficiaries of these tax credit handouts are primarily the wealthy and are predicted to cost over $101 billion. Her redesigning of Medicare will result in seniors paying more for their Part D premiums next year.

To try and cover their plan up, Harris’ campaign has announced another drug price-fixing scheme to spend more money that we do not have. 

Aside from the fact that Kamala Harris heavily aided in skyrocketing inflation and debt, the Border Czar herself has allowed over 9 million illegal migrants into our country. Our school systems, Social Security fund, law enforcement, and healthcare system are already under extreme duress. Adding more people, who are illegal in our country, has only worsened preexisting problems our nation faces. Struggling communities cannot keep up with an increased population of illegal immigrants. 

The Biden-Harris Administration is known for two things–reckless spending and failed border security. Kamala Harris used her vote in the Senate to pass the IRA, raising the price of goods, healthcare, etc. The Inflation Reduction Act should be called the Inflation Expansion Act.

So far, the Biden-Harris agenda has benefitted the wealthiest Americans, leaving our hardworking middle class behind. Harris is slashing the American Dream, raising prices every day, and making us less secure than ever.

As we head into the November election, I will continue doing everything I can to stop this Administration’s Far-Left agenda from ruining the lives of the American People.
