House Budget Committee Chairman Jodey Arrington, along with Congresswoman Carol Miller and Congressman Kevin Kiley, strongly criticized the Biden administration's economic policies during a Republican Issues Conference in Washington, D.C. Arrington highlighted the detrimental effects of these policies on American families, particularly the impact of inflation.

Arrington emphasized, "I can’t think of an area in President Biden's agenda that has quite frankly done more harm or created more pain for working families and our fellow Americans than his economic agenda." He pointed out the negative consequences of measures such as paying people not to work, which has resulted in a labor shortage and contributed to inflation. Additionally, Arrington criticized the administration's approach to American energy, stating that it has further worsened the economic situation.

The Chairman stressed the need for relief on the supply side rather than relying on taxing and regulation to address the economic challenges. He highlighted the significant financial burden faced by Americans due to inflation, stating, "They have $1,100 less in their pockets to pay their bills because of record inflation and interest rate hikes." Arrington attributed these issues to the trillions of dollars in spending and the substantial increase in the national debt under the current administration.

In conclusion, Arrington underscored the urgency of addressing the economic crisis caused by failed policies, stating that the nation is facing a "crushing force of a cost of living crisis."
