Rep. Maloney: We Are Making Real Progress on Inflation by Spending More, GOP Has No Plan to Lower Costs

EXCERPT:

MALONEY: "Well, let's look at where we are. Gas prices are more than a dollar lower than they were just about 60 days ago and they're still going down. That's good. So, the inflation that goes along with that is coming down as well. It's not where we want it to be, but we're making real progress. The other side, of course, has no plan to lower cost. They only have a ploy to win power for themselves. So we're working the problem, they're working on their own power. And on the other issues you mentioned, my goodness, every Republican voted against lower prescription drug costs and a cap on seniors' out-of-pocket costs of $2,000 a year. That's the kind of real progress that under President Biden's leadership and under Speaker Pelosi's leadership we're getting done. Now, we've got to go tell people what we're doing, but the other side, again, is interested only in their own power and has taken away 50 years of reproductive freedom, wants to whitewash the attack on our democracy, will do nothing — this MAGA crowd will do nothing while kids are getting gunned down in their classrooms. We've got a plan for your future. They've got a plan to win power. And that's the choice."
