House lawmakers are set to return to Washington on Friday to vote on a landmark climate, health care and tax bill. But even before its passage, the legislation is becoming a key component of Democrats’ midterm messaging strategy.
After the Senate in a tightrope act over the weekend approved the Inflation Reduction Act – which just weeks ago would have been considered a miraculous feat as stalled negotiations made the spending package’s passage seemingly untenable – Democrats are preemptively looking to leverage their success into midterm gains.
In a letter to Democratic colleagues, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said the “life-changing legislation” will pass in the friendlier House on Friday. With the support of both chambers, the bill – the centerpiece of President Joe Biden’s economic agenda – will head to the president’s desk.
The administration will all but certainly waste no time getting its latest message out: that Democrats have delivered on “what was best for the American people,” while congressional Republicans sided with special interests and pushed “an extreme MAGA agenda that costs families” every step of the way, according to a White House memo.
“We think there’s a pretty strong case here that the American people have won and special interests have taken a backseat,” a senior administrative official said. “And that is a big, big change.”
The new messaging comes after a string of legislative wins for Biden and congressional Democrats in recent weeks – from a semiconductor bill to legislation aimed at aiding veterans exposed to toxic burn pits. It also comes after positive jobs and inflation reports, and as the administration has made moves against Republican-led efforts to further restrict access to abortion. Democratic voters are showing some signs of responding to the string of wins.

Wallet Reduction Act
Congratulations
No lube monkeypox for everyone.
Crown jewel huh? I knew there was a Sandy Cat Burglar type involved in that fiasco yesterday. A jewel heist.
The Patriot Act wasn’t patriotic.
The Affordable Care Act made healthcare finance more expensive.
The Inflation Reduction Act......
That’s one really bad message.
Crown jewel. Wow, no bias there.
Our side’s reply:
87,000 armed IRS agents who will go after lower and middle class taxpayers...So the rich elites can buy more $100K electric cars.
Stay on message. We have one, too, democrats! You f’d up.
The democrats live in a fantasy world , they can do anything ,LOL
Complements of the stupid moronic POS McConnell and McCarthy! My goodness these people have to go. They keep screwing the base over and over again! Lindsey is another one who needs his ass kick to the side.
Inflation Production Act
They know people are too stupid to see what’s actually going on and will believe the lies put out as soundbites.
That’s yet another reason this nation has no hope of surviving.
They could burn down a city and kill a couple of million people and the media would be praising their handling of civic emergencies.
IRS = STAZI act.
NEWS FLASH FROM DONNIE BRASCO........ The Crown Jewel is a F**KING FUGAZY!
“The Patriot Act wasn’t patriotic.
The Affordable Care Act made healthcare finance more expensive.
The Inflation Reduction Act......”
+++++
All so true. They play to the headlines to get people to believe their b.s.
Also, don’t get me started on Obamacare! My siblings and I are dealing with “end-of-life” issues with our Mom. Don’t trust the politicians when they tell you that electronic medical records make things so much easier. After taking her to the hospital today at the advice of her treating physician, we learned the lab-work, painfully taken from blood draws yesterday (small veins—elderly woman) was processed by a lab not in their “network”. Thus, they could not rely on those lab results and had to do their own. ARGH!!!!!!!!!
My mother is not on a ACA plan, but the rules and regulations they put into place with that legislation, effects everyone’s insurance and treating procedures.
ARGH!!!!!!!! (again).
They did but they are not entirely unaware of that. The Inflation Permanence Act does not go into effect until after the mid-terms. They not only know the effects will be negative they apparently expect bad consequences will happen pretty quickly.
Fixed it: Crown Jewel of Demonic Messaging
Cut the federal government by THREE-FOURTHS (the $3 trillion unconstitutional portion).
Freedom and economic prosperity all in one swell foop.
Joseph Goebbels was a piker compared to the US enemedia. He would have been so proud of this propaganda dreck.
