Madison, WI – On today’s anniversary of the so-called Inflation Reduction Act, Americans for Prosperity-Wisconsin (AFP-WI) is reminding Wisconsinites that the historic inflation they’ve experienced in recent years is a product of the failed leadership of senators like Tammy Baldwin.
Inflation has been unusually high since the Biden-Harris administration took office due to reckless spending, and there is no doubt that the trillion-dollar IRA did nothing to reduce it. In fact, increased inflation has cost the average Wisconsin household more than $25,000 since January 2021.
Senator Baldwin was the deciding vote on many of these disastrous “Bidenomics” policies that have contributed to the pain Americans are experiencing as the cost of living has skyrocketed under her watch.
AFP-WI State Director Megan Novak released the following statement:
“Tammy Baldwin claims to fight for Wisconsinites but her voting record says otherwise. For decades, she has supported radical spending policies burdening Wisconsinites with high costs and skyrocketing inflation. Thanks to Baldwin’s vote for the so-called Inflation Reduction Act, Wisconsin families now pay nearly $1,000 more per month than before the Biden-Harris administration.
“Wisconsinites deserve to know if Baldwin still stands by this bad policy or regrets the economic harm her radical agenda has caused Wisconsinites over the past two years.”
