Jean-Pierre on Another Historic Inflation Report: Why We’re Pushing New Spending on Entitlements

EXCERPT:

JEAN-PIERRE: “So we are seeing some progress, some macroeconomic progress, but we understand that there are Americans and families that are still struggling. That’s why the president continues to do everything that he can to lower cost, whether it's insulin at 35 bucks for seniors and calling for that to be for all Americans, and a plan to build 2 million new homes, lower childcare costs, this is what the president is trying to do and has been very clear about his plan for Americans as it relates to the economy and, again, in contrast to what the GOP is trying to do, cut Medicare, cut Social Security, cut Medicaid, make sure that — they want to make sure that there’s a tax break for billionaires and corporations. That’s not what this president is about. So, the work continues, we’re going to continue to fight inflation, we’re going to continue to be really focused on that, and that’s what you’re gonna see from this administration."
