SCALISE: So Much for the Inflation Reduction Act

With a report this morning indicating that inflation is still red-hot and Americans are feeling the pinch, Minority Whip, Steve Scalise, had this to say regarding the Inflation Reduction Act.

🚨 Inflation is UP 8.3% over last year.

- Food at home +13.5%
- Electricity +15.8%
- Gas utilities +33%
- Rent +6.7%
- Transportation +11.3%

So much for the Dems' "Inflation Reduction" Act.
