WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, as part of Senator Rick Scott’s weekly update on his actions to address America’s debt crisis and rising inflation and following the recent announcement from the Bureau of Economic Analysis’ Core PCE Report showing June prices paid by consumers for goods and services increased 2.6% over the year, Senator Scott released the following statement highlighting failures of Bidenomics and the Harris Price Hikes resulting from the Biden-Harris administration’s reckless tax-and-spend agenda. Senator Scott’s statement highlights the declining fiscal health of this country, with inflation rising more than 20% since the Biden-Harris administration took office.

Senator Rick Scott said, “The Biden-Harris administration’s handling of the economy continues to be a massive failure wreaking havoc and bringing hardship on Florida families. Every day, the American Dream moves further out of reach, and hardworking Americans are feeling the consequences of the Harris Price Hikes everywhere—from the grocery store, to paying rent, to filling up their cars to get to work. The failures of Bidenomics and the pain caused by Harris Price Hikes mean small businesses are being forced to close, Americans are having to take on multiple jobs to make ends meet, and even seniors are coming out of retirement because they cannot afford to not work. A once affordable life is becoming unattainable for so many families. The Biden-Harris administration has proven to be a total disaster for all Americans and it’s time for a change in Washington.”    

Since being elected to the U.S. Senate, Senator Scott has repeatedly urged action to address America’s debt crisis and the harmful effects of inflation. Click HERE for a comprehensive list of his statements and actions on this urgent issue and HERE for Senator Scott’s Quarterly Economic Snapshot.
