Ritchie Torres: We Have To Tell the Story of the Biden Administration’s Success

‘We’ve had the fastest recovery from Covid of any major economy in the world’

EXCERPT:

TORRES: “Obviously, there's a challenge of inflation, which has been a global problem, but you know, we have to tell the story of the Biden administration's success. We've had the fastest recovery from Covid of any major economy in the world. The president is addressing the cost of living. The Bronx has among the highest rates of diabetes, capping the price of insulin at $35 a month is a game changer and a lifesaver for the people the Bronx, and President Biden created 15 million jobs compared to 2.9 million lost under Donald Trump. Donald Trump claims that he's in favor of cutting taxes. He imposed the largest tax increase in New York City in recent history. The loss of SALT deductibility cost our state $15 billion in revenue. So New Yorkers are paying more in taxes and receiving fewer services because of Donald Trump.”
