More than 100 House Republicans warned on Wednesday that President Biden’s multi-trillion dollar social spending bill is only likely to exacerbate the nation’s supply chain shortages.
Rep. Sam Graves, the top Republican on the House Transportation Committee, and more than 100 other GOP lawmakers wrote in an open letter to the White House that Mr. Biden’s emphasis on tax hikes, creating new entitlement programs and imposing stringent environmental regulations would cripple the ability of businesses to respond to the blockages plaguing both consumer and industrial goods trapped in the supply pipeline.
“Multiple factors have contributed to the nation’s supply chain crisis, but one factor that is being overlooked is how the collection of harmful policies being pushed by the president and his party [are] making matters worse – not better,” Mr. Graves told The Washington Times. “Policies that encourage unemployment and worker shortages… lead to an inflationary tax increase … new regulations and prohibitions that drive up the cost of everything including energy … all of these policies are causing further breakdowns in the supply chain.”

House Republicans are generally useless
But this helps the raise funds…
And it takes over 100 of them to reinforce what us commoners call common sense.
A 25% increase in EBT payments sure didn’t help groceries.
Maybe they missed a key issue here. Government spending taxpayer money for projects diverts resources from the private sector, creating more scarcity and ever higher costs for everyone.
The Democrat Party versus the American people.
Again.
Total incompetence of the Biden administration. A farce.
Is there a link to the list?
[not in the article]
Where were they a year ago? All I can do now is say “ I told you so!” No consolation as I am I.n the same sh*t as the rest.
Well, yeah, and reduce our defensive capabilities to smitherines.
Well you have to demolish something before you can Build Back Better.
They might as well have written to Biden - Your Plans Are Working.
It seems that this thing is out of anyone’s control. A perfect storm of bad judgement. One can only hope the American people wise up and jettison the Democrats in the upcoming elections.
Please, like diarrhea for brains give a rats behind about anything other than appeasing what his far left kooks who run everything tell him to do
“More than 100 House Republicans warned on Wednesday . . .”
Why just 100 or so? Why not every House Republican?
Because the rest of them are busy writing letters to donors: “Send money to reelect us so that we can fight, fight, fight and TAKE BACK THE HOUSE and get better perks as majority members.
It seems that this thing is out of anyone’s control. A perfect storm of bad judgement. One can only hope the American people wise up and jettison the Democrats in the upcoming elections.
Democrats consider damage to the economy a positive bonus.
I doubt if Biden’s handlers will let him read it. I any case their plan is to destroy Capitalism not in any way save it. They want to prove Socialism is the answer.
Causing more inflation which Buttigig says it’s great for the economy.
